On smoke suppression of clouds in Amazonia [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 2005 We use large eddy simulations of smoke‐cloud interactions to demonstrate the relative importance of various factors responsible for cloud suppression in the biomass burning regions of Amazonia. The model includes unprecedented treatment of coupled smoke aerosol‐cloud‐radiative feedbacks in a 3‐dimensional model that resolves scales of ∼100s m.
