Smoke aerosols elevate precipitation top and latent heat to the upper atmosphere globally

Abstract Investigations across five fire-impacted regions worldwide show that smoke consistently increases precipitation rates at elevations above the 0 °C isotherm. This enhancement persists despite regional differences in atmospheric circulation fields associated with precipitation events. Upon li...
