Simulations of primary and secondary ice production during an Arctic mixed-phase cloud case from the Ny-Ålesund Aerosol Cloud Experiment (NASCENT) campaign

Georgia Sotiropoulou, Paraskevi Georgakaki

The representation of Arctic clouds and their phase distributions, i.e., the amount of ice and supercooled water, influences predictions of future Arctic warming. Therefore, it is essential that cloud phase is correctly captured by models in order to accur ...

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 ...

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 ...

The role of secondary ice production in mixed-phase clouds

Paraskevi Georgakaki

Clouds are omnipresent in the Earth's atmosphere. Their phase composition significantly modulates their interaction with solar and terrestrial radiation, as well as precipitation formation. Particularly for clouds containing both phases, known as mixed-pha ...

Electron Diffraction of Water in No Man's Land

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

A generally accepted understanding of the anomalous properties of water will only emerge if it becomes possible to systematically characterize water in the deeply supercooled regime, from where the anomalies appear to emanate. This has largely remained elu ...

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 ...

The relative contribution of secondary ice processes in Alpine mixed-phase clouds

Athanasios Nenes, Alexis Berne, Georgia Sotiropoulou, Paraskevi Georgakaki, Etienne Gabriel Henri Vignon

In-situ observations of mixed-phase clouds (MPCs) forming over mountain tops regularly reveal that ice crystal number concentrations (ICNCs) are orders of magnitude higher than ice-nucleating particle concentrations. This discrepancy has often been attribu ...

Secondary ice production in summer clouds over the Antarctic coast: an underappreciated process in atmospheric models

Athanasios Nenes, Alexis Berne, Georgia Sotiropoulou, Etienne Gabriel Henri Vignon

The correct representation of Antarctic clouds in atmospheric models is crucial for accurate projections of the future Antarctic climate. This is particularly true for summer clouds which play a critical role in the surface melting of the ice shelves in th ...

Ground based and airborne observations of orographic mixed-phase clouds (MPCs) forming over mountain top research stations have long reported a discrepancy between the measured ice crystal number concentrations (ICNCs) and the concentration of ice nucleati ...

Mixed-phase clouds in polar regions play a crucial role in surface ice melting. To accurately predict their radiative impact in climate models, an accurate representation of their microphysical structure is required. However, cloud ice content is generally ...
