The Effects of In-Cloud Sulfate Production on Light-Scattering Properties of Continental Aerosol

Abstract
Model calculations am presented for continental scenarios that demonstrate that the heterogeneity in the chemistry of different size cloud drops can have a significant impact on the amount of sulfate produced in cloud, its size distribution, and the consequent integral light-scattering efficiency of sulfate. The results are contrasted with previous calculations for a marine scenario.
