The interaction relationship between cloud and aerosol is studied via their optical depth and cloud effective radius based on ground-based remote sensors. By attenuated backscatter obtained by lidar the optical depth of cloud and aerosol is retrieved. Combing with liquid water path observed by microwave radiometer, the cloud number concentration and cloud effective radius is also retrieved based on the adiabatic hypothesis Cases studies shows that during the stable stratocumulus with interval precipitation period and aerosol with vertical motion, the cloud effective radius shows both negative and positive relationship with aerosol optical depth. It may be due to the difference of liquid water path of the cloud properties and shows complex interaction with aerosol.
