Emulating Aerosol Microphysics with Machine Learning

Understand

Aerosol particles play an important role in the climate system by absorbing and scattering radiation and influencing cloud properties.

• They are also one of the biggest sources of uncertainty for climate modeling.
• Many climate models do not include aerosols in sufficient detail.
• In order to achieve higher accuracy, aerosol microphysical properties and processes have to be accounted for.
