Abstract:

We discuss the potential effect of incident microwave radiation from the ionosphere on the formation of condensation-cluster haze in the troposphere through modification of the cluster-ion dissociative recombination rate (primarily from water vapor).

Keywords:

condensation-cluster haze, dissociative recombination, cluster ions, water vapor
