- W4282943885 abstract "The number concentration and properties of aerosol particles serving as cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) are important for understanding cloud formation, particularly in the tropical Atlantic marine boundary layer (MBL) where marine cumulus clouds reflect incoming solar radiation and obscure the low-albedo ocean surface. Studies linking aerosol source, composition, and water uptake properties in this region have been conducted primarily during summertime dust transport, despite the region receiving a variety of aerosol particle types throughout the year. In this study, we compare size-resolved aerosol chemical composition data to the hygroscopicity parameter κ derived from size-resolved CCN measurements made during the EUREC4A and ATOMIC campaigns from January to February 2020. We observed unexpected periods of wintertime long-range transport of African smoke and dust to Barbados. During these periods, the accumulation mode aerosol particle and CCN number concentrations as well as the proportions of dust and smoke particles increased while the average κ slightly decreased (κ = 0.45+0.1) from marine background conditions (κ = 0.52+0.08) when the particles were mostly composed of marine organics and sulfate. Size-resolved chemical analysis shows that smoke particles were the major contributor to the accumulation mode aerosol during long-range transport events, indicating that smoke is mainly responsible for the observed increase in CCN number concentrations. Earlier studies conducted at Barbados have mostly focused on the role of dust on CCN, but our results show that aerosol hygroscopicity and CCN number concentrations during wintertime long-range transport events over the tropical North Atlantic are affected by African smoke more than dust. Our findings highlight the importance of African smoke for atmospheric processes and cloud formation over the Caribbean." @default.
