N2 - The activation of giant cloud condensation nucleii (CCN) is evident during in-cloud measurements. However, the processes responsible for the sulfate coating of dust are yet to be identified. Results from two-dimensional cloud model are presented, indicating that the coated mineral dust particles that serve as giant CCN, lead to an enhanced formation of precipitation sized drops and therefore to an increase in rainfall.
