A basic understanding of thermodynamic processes in the atmosphere as well as cloud microphysics (equivalent to the respective mandatory courses in the meteorology bachelor programme) is assumed.
Contents:
The lecture deals with the role of clouds and aerosols for climate and weather.

A special focus are aerosol-cloud interactions.
