Short summary
Using model simulations, we studied convective weather events to see how urban aerosol emissions influence cloud microphysics and precipitation. By tracing urban air volumes from convective clouds back to their emission sources, we could isolate the effects of emissions. The results show that urban emissions affect precipitation differently depending on the meteorological situation, highlighting the complex and case-dependent role of cities in shaping local rainfall.
