Short summary
Interactions between clouds and small particles in the atmosphere can cause changes to cloud properties, such as how much of the sun's energy they reflect and whether precipitation is likely to occur. Here we use a new machine learning dataset to investigate these interactions using observations from the Southeast Atlantic. We find that smoke particles above cloud tops have a strong impact on cloud properties in stable environments. This method can also be applied to satellite data.
