Biological particles in the Earth's atmosphere are a distinctive category of ice nucleating
particles (INPs) due to their capability of facilitating ice crystal formation in clouds at …

Atmospheric ice‐nucleating particles (INPs) play a critical role in cloud freezing processes,
with important implications for precipitation formation and cloud radiative properties, and …

In the atmosphere, microphysics refers to the microscale processes that affect cloud and
precipitation particles and is a key linkage among the various components of Earth's …

Ice particle formation in tropospheric clouds significantly changes cloud radiative and
microphysical properties. Ice nucleation in the troposphere via homogeneous freezing …

Predicting the formation of ice in the atmosphere presents one of the great challenges in
physical sciences with important implications for the chemistry and composition of the …

Ice nucleating particles (INPs) are vital for ice initiation in, and precipitation from, mixed-
phase clouds. A source of INPs from oceans within sea spray aerosol (SSA) emissions has …

Shallow clouds covering vast areas of the world's middle-and high-latitude oceans play a
key role in dampening the global temperature rise associated with CO 2. These clouds …

Aerosol particles that exist in the marine atmosphere are derived from both continental and
oceanic sources. Since aerosol lifetimes and atmospheric transport times often are similar, 1 …

Ice-nucleating particles (INPs) are known to affect the amount of ice in mixed-phase clouds,
thereby influencing many of their properties. The atmospheric INP concentration changes by …

Aeolian dusts serve as ice nucleating particles in mixed-phase clouds, and thereby alter the
cloud properties and lifetime. Glacial outwash plains are thought to be a major dust source …
