Abstract:

Aerosol chemical composition, optical and microphysical characteristics within the cloud and outside it, meteorological parameters and synoptic situation in the observation area were examined. The analysis revealed general conditions for the aerosol uncondensed cloud formation, their inner and disperse structure. The mechanism responsible for the occurrence of this kind of clouds is shown to be due to the fact that, in some cases, the convective flows entraining the aerosol particles break through the inversion layer.
