SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
The book provides an overview of exciting recent developments and advances in our understanding of the role of clouds in climate and atmospheric chemistry. Topics covered include: Modeling of clouds in GCMs; observations of the microphysical properties of clouds; the water vapor cycle; troposphere/stratosphere exchange; the role of clouds in tropospheric ozone; the regulation of current and paleoclimate by clouds; radiative/convection interactions; anthropogenic sulfate aerosols and the modification of cloud properties.
