Satellite Observations Show Negligible Impact of Mineral Dust on Cloud Droplet Number

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract The susceptibility of cloud droplet number concentration Nd $\left({N}_{\mathrm{d}}\right)$ to aerosols (β) $(\beta )$ remains challenging to constrain in satellite observations. This difficulty arises from limitations in representing cloud condensation nuclei, which depend on aerosol size and composition.

CNN‐Based Retrieval of 3D Cloud Structures Solely From Geostationary Satellite Imagery

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract The cloud vertical structure (CVS) is important, yet operational CVS products depend on active observation or reanalysis fields, limiting high‐frequency monitoring. In this study, we propose a lightweight and satellite‐only model that reconstructs volumetric cloud masks from geostationary multispectral imagery.

Surface Observations From Atmospheric Radiation Measurement Sites Constrain the Anthropogenic Contribution to Cloud Droplet Number

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Uncertainty in anthropogenic forcing driven by aerosol‐cloud interactions (aci) limits our ability to infer the sensitivity of the Earth system to forcing from historical records. The driver of aci is the change in cloud droplet number concentration (Nd) due to changes in aerosol serving as cloud condensation nuclei (CCN).

Interconnection of Aerosol‐Cloud Interactions and Cloud Feedback Through Warm Rain Process

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Recent research has revealed a correlation within the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6) simulations: models exhibiting more pronounced warming due to positive cloud feedback simultaneously show enhanced cooling from aerosol‐cloud interactions (ACI).

Ratios of Extinction Coefficient, Mass, and Surface Area to Backscatter Coefficient and Mass to Extinction Coefficient Derived From Balloon‐Borne Stratospheric Aerosol Size Distribution Measurements From 1989–2025

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract In situ measurements of stratospheric aerosol are the only measurements that provide sufficient detail to determine aerosol number, size, surface area, volume/mass, and effective radius; however, these measurements are limited in space and time.
