摘要
Subvisible cirrus clouds in the tropical tropopause region, are important in the dehydration of air entering the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere. At midaltitudes, aerosols and cirrus clouds may play a role in ozone chemistry and affect on the radiative forcing of climate. Aerosol growth and composition can be studied by employing a thermodynamic equilibrium model, in which the coupling between gas and aerosol phase is taken into account.
