ESSIC / AOSC Professor Zhanqing Li is a co-author of a new study published in Advances in Atmospheric Sciences titled “First surface-based estimation of the aerosol indirect effect (AIE) over a site in southeastern China.” According to Li, the use of ground-based measurements is one of the most important methodologies for both quantifying the magnitude of AIE and understanding the underlying mechanisms. The authors were the first researchers to utilize the approach in China.
