The seeder–feeder mechanism has been observed to enhance orographic precipitation in
previous studies. However, the microphysical processes active in the seeder and feeder …

Ice-nucleating particles (INPs) initiate ice formation in supercooled clouds, typically starting
in western Europe at a few kilometres above the ground. However, little is known about the …

Understanding the evolution of the ice phase within mixed-phase clouds (MPCs) is
necessary to reduce uncertainties related to the cloud radiative feedback in climate …

An accurate prediction of the ice crystal number concentration in clouds is important to
determine the radiation budget, the lifetime, and the precipitation formation of clouds …

Here, we present a multi‐season study of ice‐nucleating particles (INPs) active via the
immersion freezing mechanism, which took place in north‐central Argentina, a worldwide …

Precipitation over the mid-latitudes originates mostly from the ice phase within mixed-phase
clouds, signifying the importance of initial ice crystal formation. Primary ice crystals are …

Aerosol–cloud interactions in mixed-phase clouds (MPCs) are one of the most uncertain
drivers of the hydrological cycle and climate change. A synergy of in situ, remote-sensing …

Previous studies that investigated orographic precipitation have primarily focused on
isolated mountain barriers. Here we investigate the influence of low-level blocking and …

Droplet formation provides a direct microphysical link between aerosols and clouds (liquid
or mixed-phase), and its adequate description poses a major challenge for any atmospheric …

We examined ice-nucleating particles (INPs) in the plumes of the Tocantins and Amazon
rivers, which drain watersheds with different proportions of degraded land. The …
