Scientists Find the Hidden “Fuel” That May Intensify Tropical Clouds

Deep, clean convective clouds can reach high supersaturation levels that may allow aerosols to intensify cloud growth. Tiny aerosol particles can change how clouds behave, but scientists have long debated whether they can actually make tropical storm clouds grow stronger. The question matters because deep convective clouds help shape rainfall, lightning, and climate, yet the [...]
