The nucleation of ice crystals in clouds is poorly understood, despite being of critical
importance for our planet's climate. Nucleation occurs largely at rare “active sites” present on …

Heterogeneous nucleation is vital to a wide range of areas as diverse as ice nucleation on
atmospheric aerosols and the fabrication of high-performance thin films. There is excellent …

Ice nucleation in the atmosphere influences cloud properties, altering precipitation and the
radiative balance, ultimately regulating Earth's climate. An accepted ice nucleation pathway …

Ice particle number concentrations are often described deterministically, ie, ice nucleation is
singular and occurs on active sites unambiguously at a given temperature. Other …

A small fraction of particles in the atmosphere can catalyze ice formation in cloud water
drops through heterogeneous freezing nucleation at temperatures warmer than the …

Heterogeneous nucleation of ice from aqueous solutions is an important yet poorly
understood process in multiple fields, not least the atmospheric sciences where it impacts …

Heterogeneous ice nucleation is an important mechanism for the glaciation of mixed phase
clouds and may also be relevant for cloud formation and dehydration at the cirrus cloud …

An optical microscope coupled to a flow cell was used to investigate the onset conditions for
ice nucleation on five atmospherically relevant minerals at temperatures ranging from 233 to …

Ice formation in atmospheric clouds is crucial to our understanding of precipitation and cloud
radiative properties. In recent work it was shown that heterogeneous ice nucleation rates …

Ice formation on aerosol particles is a process of crucial importance to Earth's climate and
the environmental sciences, but it is not understood at the molecular level. This is partly …
