A small subset of the atmospheric aerosol population has the ability to induce ice formation
at conditions under which ice would not form without them (heterogeneous ice nucleation) …

Aerosols are a critical factor in the atmospheric hydrological cycle and radiation budget. As a
major agent for clouds to form and a significant attenuator of solar radiation, aerosols affect …

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

Aviation alters the composition of the atmosphere globally and can thus drive climate
change and ozone depletion. The last major international assessment of these impacts was …

Bioaerosols are relevant for public health and may play an important role in the climate
system, but their atmospheric abundance, properties, and sources are not well understood …

In climate and weather models, the quantitative description of aerosol and cloud processes
relies on simplified assumptions. This contributes major uncertainties to the prediction of …

From the frontiers of research on ice dynamics in its broadest sense, this review surveys the
structures of ice, the patterns or morphologies it may assume, and the physical and chemical …

The microphysical and radiative properties of cirrus clouds continue to be beyond
understanding and thus still represent one of the largest uncertainties in the prediction of the …

An ice nucleation parameterization based on classical nucleation theory, with aerosol-
specific parameters derived from experiments, has been implemented into a global climate …

Data from both laboratory studies and atmospheric measurements are used to develop an
empirical parameterization for the immersion freezing activity of natural mineral dust …
