The proposed field and numerical studies will provide new data sets and new understanding of organic aerosols influences on cloud formation and rainfall processes. Tethered balloon observations will also provide insights into the distribution of aerosol precursors and aerosols in the atmospheric boundary layer and how these are perturbed by pollution. The generated data sets will permit to determine the influence of anthropogenically influenced secondary organic aerosols in regional climate.
