Atmospheric ice nucleation is crucial for global precipitation and affects the structure, lifetime
and reflectivity of clouds, thereby impacting climate. Ice nucleates in various ways from …

Mixed-phase clouds represent a three-phase colloidal system consisting of water vapor, ice
particles, and coexisting supercooled liquid droplets. Mixed-phase clouds are ubiquitous in …

In the atmosphere, microphysics refers to the microscale processes that affect cloud and
precipitation particles and is a key linkage among the various components of Earth's …

The Arctic climate system includes numerous highly interactive small-scale physical
processes in the atmosphere, sea ice, and ocean. During and since the International Polar …

Temperature inversions are a common feature of the Arctic wintertime boundary layer. They
have important impacts on both radiative and turbulent heat fluxes and partly determine …

Aerosols that serve as ice nucleating particles (INPs) have the potential to modulate cloud
microphysical properties and can therefore impact cloud radiative forcing (CRF) and …

Observations from the Arctic Summer Cloud Ocean Study (ASCOS), in the central Arctic sea-
ice pack in late summer 2008, provide a detailed view of cloud–atmosphere–surface …

Large‐eddy simulations of mixed‐phase Arctic clouds by 11 different models are analyzed
with the goal of improving understanding and model representation of processes controlling …

We perform a model intercomparison of summertime high Arctic (> 80∘ N) clouds observed
during the 2008 Arctic Summer Cloud Ocean Study (ASCOS) campaign, when observed …

Observations suggest that processes maintaining subtropical and Arctic stratocumulus differ,
due to the different environments in which they occur. For example, specific humidity …
