In this thesis an assessment of the parameterization of the Aerosol-Radiation Interaction (ARI) in online integrated meteorology-chemistry models has been conducted. The model estimates of ARI radiative effects are still affected by significant uncertainty, mainly caused by a poor constraining of ae...
