The effect of an increase in atmospheric aerosol concentrations on the
distribution and radiative properties of Earth's clouds is the most uncertain
component of the overall global radiative forcing from preindustrial time.
General circulation models (GCMs) are the tool for predicting future climate, but
the treatment of aerosols, clouds, and aerosol-cloud radiative effects carries
large uncertainties that directly affect GCM predictions, such as climate
sensitivity. Predictions are hampered by the large range of scales of interaction
between various components that need to be captured. Observation systems (remote
sensing, in situ) are increasingly being used to constrain predictions, but
significant challenges exist, to some extent because of the large range of scales
and the fact that the various measuring systems tend to address different scales.
Fine-scale models represent clouds, aerosols, and aerosol-cloud interactions with
high fidelity but do not include interactions with the larger scale and are
therefore limited from a climatic point of view. We suggest strategies for
improving estimates of aerosol-cloud relationships in climate models, for new
remote sensing and in situ measurements, and for quantifying and reducing model
uncertainty.
