The aerosols play a main role in precipitation formation in the atmosphere. Organic Carbon (OC) is a must-imported aerosol because it is considered a cloud condensation nuclear CCN. This work dealt with the relationship between Organic Carbon (OC) and many variables that affect precipitation formation in South Iraq (Basra and AL-Muthana) including Cloud Top Temb Cloud Top Temperature CTT, Total PrecipitableWater TPW, and Precipitation. The cases selected are 14 – 15 Nov. 2018 and 26 – 29 Jan. 2019 to test the relationship between variables. Data obtained from retrospective analysis for research and applications, version 2 (MERRA-2). Including OC, total Precipitablewater (TPW), and precipitation amount of 3 hours. The times are fixed according to the cases. The cloud top temperature (CTT) was obtained by the infrared satellite images provided by the European Space Agency, using a group of satellites. The result indicates a strong effect of OC on the cloud depth and the TPW when finally increases the precipitation amount.
