Dear Colleagues, We would like to bring to your attention the following session at the upcoming 2011 AGU fall meeting (December 5-9th, 2011, San Francisco, USA). Please see below for the session title and a brief description. We invite papers on observational, modeling, instrumentation and/or laboratory studies related to the topics. Please feel free to forward the invitation to your colleagues who might be interested in submitting an abstract to this session. The abstract submission is now open, and it closes on the 4th of August. More information and meeting details can be found at * http://sites.agu.org/fallmeeting/* <http://sites.agu.org/fallmeeting/>. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ A05: Aerosol-Cloud Interactions, Ship Tracks, and Geoengineering *http://sites.agu.org/fallmeeting/scientific-program/session-search/40*<http://sites.agu.org/fallmeeting/scientific-program/session-search/40> The influence of aerosols on clouds and climate continues to be a challenge in climate research. Ship tracks that serve as inadvertent experiments for understanding relevant processes and help in assessing the climate effect of more widely distributed aerosols have inspired decades of research on aerosol indirect effects. The deliberate brightening of marine boundary-layer clouds using aerosols to mitigate the warming driven by greenhouse gases has been suggested as one geoengineering strategy and it has received considerable attention. We invite papers on recent scientific results related to general aerosol-cloud interactions, with particular attention to advertent/inadvertent cloud modification and geoengineering by aerosols. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Thank you very much for your attention.
