AB: Clouds remain one of the largest uncertainties in our understanding of the Earth's climate. In order to understand how anthropogenic emissions affect clouds, we need to understand the natural aerosol/cloud interactions that control cloud properties. In particular, the role of organic aerosol particles in cloud formation and development remains poorly understood. Here we present measurements from several field investigations of the chemical and microphysical properties of cloud droplet residual particles, with an emphasis on the role of organic species.
