Lecture
Arctic Aerosols: Tiny Drivers of Climate Change
Description
This lecture by the instructor covers the impact of Arctic aerosols on climate change, focusing on their sources, processes, and effects. It discusses the amplification of warming in the Arctic, the role of aerosols in cloud formation, and the influence of natural and anthropogenic aerosols on the Arctic atmosphere. The presentation also addresses the emergence of iodic acid, the chemical composition of aerosols, and the implications of warm air mass intrusions on Arctic pollution and warming. The lecture emphasizes the need for further research to understand the complex interactions between aerosols, clouds, and climate in the Arctic region.
