摘要

During the CARRIBA (Cloud, Aerosol, Radiation and tuRbulence in thetrade wInd regime over BArbados) campaign, the interaction between aerosol particlesand cloud microphysical properties was investigated in detail, which alsoincludes the influence of clouds on the aerosol formation. During twointensive campaigns in 2010 and 2011, helicopter-borne measurement flightswere performed to investigate the thermodynamic, turbulent,microphysical, and radiative properties of trade-wind cumuli over Barbados.During these flights, 91 cases with increased aerosol particle numberconcentrations near clouds were detected. The majority of these cases arealso correlated with enhanced irradiance in the ultraviolet (UV) spectralwavelength range. This enhancement reaches values up to a factor of 3.3greater compared to background values. Thus, cloud boundaries provide a perfectenvironment for the production of precursor gases for new particle formation.Another feature of cloud edges is an increased turbulence, which may alsoenhance nucleation and particle growth. The observed events have a meanlength of 100 m, corresponding to a lifetime of less than 300 s. This impliesthat particles with diameters of at least 7 nm grew several nanometers perminute, which corresponds to the upper end of values in the literature(Kulmala et al., 2004). Such high values cannot be explained by sulfuric acidalone; thus extremely low volatility organic compounds (ELVOCs) are probablyinvolved here.
