Short summary
Aerosols from air pollution affect weather and climate in various ways. Uncertainties remain on their interactions with clouds, in particular via microphysics (processes related to phase-changes of water that generate rain and lightning). We investigate this with high resolution simulations, focusing on cumulus thermals (the rising bubbles in clouds). We describe the thermals’ roles in these interactions, and identify related mesoscale feedback that enhance convection under polluted conditions.
