Revisiting Aerosol–Cloud Interactions From Weekly Cycles ( 由于标题字数限制, 中文标题为自翻,以原标题为准) Abstract Weekly cycles (WCs) in cloud properties have been reported and linked to aerosol effects. Yet the extent to which human activities contribute to their occurrence remains unclear. Here, we revisit aerosol–cloud interactions from the WCs over central Europe using long-term satellite and reanalysis data. Significant WCs in aerosol and cloud droplet number concentration (Nd) are detected with minima/maxima on Monday/Friday, indicating a clear signal of the Twomey effect. Notably, Nd–to–aerosol sensitivity from WCs is found to decrease at larger aerosol concentrations, confirming the nonlinear behavior of the aerosol–Nd relation (in log–log space) reported previously, but from a distinct perspective. Nevertheless, no discernible WCs in liquid water path are found. The pronounced WCs in cloud cover are demonstrated to be driven by natural
