Flash Melting Amorphous Ice

Marcel Drabbels, Ulrich Lorenz, Constantin Richard Krüger, Gabriele Bongiovanni, Nathan Junior Mowry

Water can be vitrified if it is cooled at high rates, which makes it possible to outrun crystallization in so-called no man’s land, a range of deeply supercooled temperatures where water crystallizes rapidly. Here, we study the reverse process in pure wate ...

The molecular scale mechanism of deposition ice nucleation on silver iodide

Athanasios Nenes, Mária Lbadaoui-Darvas, André Welti

Heterogeneous ice nucleation is a ubiquitous process in the natural and built environment. Deposition ice nucleation, i.e. heterogeneous ice nucleation that - according to the traditional view - occurs in a subsaturated water vapor environment and in the a ...

Physicochemical characterization and source apportionment of Arctic ice-nucleating particles observed in Ny-Alesund in autumn 2019

Athanasios Nenes, Ghislain Gilles Jean-Michel Motos, Jörg Wieder, Guangyu Li

Ice-nucleating particles (INPs) initiate primary ice formation in Arctic mixed-phase clouds (MPCs), altering cloud radiative properties and modulating precipitation. For atmospheric INPs, the complexity of their spatiotemporal variations, heterogeneous sou ...

Deposition freezing, pore condensation freezing and adsorption: three processes, one description?

Athanasios Nenes, Mária Lbadaoui-Darvas

Heterogeneous ice nucleation impacts the hydrological cycle and climate through affecting cloud microphysical state and radiative properties. Despite decades of research, a quantitative description and understanding of heterogeneous ice nucleation remains ...

Highly Active Ice‐Nucleating Particles at the Summer North Pole

Julia Schmale

The amount of ice versus supercooled water in clouds is important for their radiative properties and role in climate feedbacks. Hence, knowledge of the concentration of ice-nucleating particles (INPs) is needed. Generally, the concentrations of INPs are fo ...

Modeling the small-scale deposition of snow onto structured Arctic sea ice during a MOSAiC storm using snowBedFoam 1.0

Michael Lehning, Océane Hames, Marc Schneebeli Zeugin, David Nicholas Wagner, Mahdi Jafari

The remoteness and extreme conditions of the Arctic make it a very difficult environment to investigate. In these polar regions covered by sea ice, the wind is relatively strong due to the absence of obstructions and redistributes a large part of the depos ...

The role of air-sea fluxes for the water vapour isotope signals in the cold and warm sectors of extratropical cyclones over the Southern Ocean

Josué Etienne Gehring, Irina Gorodetskaya

Meridional atmospheric transport is an important process in the climate system and has implications for the availability of heat and moisture at high latitudes. Near-surface cold and warm temperature advection over the ocean in the context of extratropical ...

Radar and ground-level measurements of precipitation collected by the Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne during the International Collaborative Experiments for PyeongChang 2018 Olympic and Paralympic winter games

Alexis Berne, Josué Etienne Gehring, Alfonso Ferrone, Anne-Claire Marie Billault--Roux, Nikola Besic

This article describes a 4-month dataset of precipitation and cloud measurements collected during the International Collaborative Experiments for PyeongChang 2018 Olympic and Paralympic winter games (ICE-POP 2018). This paper aims to describe the data coll ...

Modelling the small-scale deposition of snow onto structured Arctic sea ice during a MOSAiC storm using snowBedFoam 1.0

Michael Lehning, Océane Hames, Mahdi Jafari, Marc Schneebeli Zeugin, David Nicholas Wagner

The remoteness and extreme conditions of the Arctic make it a very difficult environment to investigate. In these regions, the wind has a substantial effect and redistributes a large part of the snow, which complicates precipitation estimates. Moreover, th ...

Preferential Deposition of Snow and Dust Over Hills: Governing Processes and Relevant Scales

Michael Lehning, Marc Parlange, Francesco Comola, Marco Giovanni Giometto

Preferential deposition of snow and dust over complex terrain is responsible for a wide range of environmental processes and accounts for a significant source of uncertainty in the surface mass balances of cold and arid regions. Despite the growing body of ...
