Samenvatting:
Nitrate appeared to be the dominant aerosol species in the local 'direct'aerosol radiative forcing in the Netherlands, which was in the order of -5
W.m"-2 on cloudless days. A first approach to the local influence of
anthropogenic aerosols on cloud microphysics and radiation transfer in clouds
('indirect' aerosol effect) was the measurement, in a large cloud chamber, of
the number and composition of the cloud droplets formed in marine air. In
anthropogenically 'polluted' marine air, five times more cloud nuclei were
formed than in clean (arctic) marine air. Approximately half of the
anthropogenic aerosol particles with the proper size did not have the proper
composition, i.e. not soluble in water and did therefore not serve as extra
cloud nuclei. 3 figs., 3 refs.
