Abstract: Aerosol particles in the atmosphere that allow water vapor to condense and form cloud droplets are called Cloud Condensation Nuclei (CCN). Elevated concentrations of CCN tend to increase the concentration and decrease the size of cloud droplets. This can lead to suppression of precipitation in shallow and short-lived clouds and to greater convective overturning and more precipitation in deep convective clouds, Rose et al.(2010). The response of cloud properties and precipitation processes to increasing anthropogenic aerosol concentrations represents one of the largest uncertainties in the current understanding of climate change. One of the fundamental challenges is to determine the ability of aerosol particles to act as CCN under relevant atmospheric conditions. Knowledge of the spatial and temporal distribution in the atmosphere is essential to incorporate the effects of CCN into meteorological models of all scales, Huang et al. (2007). Long-term CCN measurements are performed at aerosol monitoring sites such as those forming ACTRIS (Aerosols, Clouds, and Trace Gases Research Infrastructure) network. Measured data are then submitted to the EBAS database, where they are available for the other ACTRIS researchers. In this paper, we present our experience with the processing of the data measured with CCNC for submission to the EBAS database. The data prepared for submission to EBAS from year 2020 are also presented.
