On the role of ice-nucleating aerosol in the formation of ice particles in tropical mesoscale convective systems
Over decades, the cloud physics community has debated the nature and role of aerosol particles in ice initiation. The present study shows that the measured concentration of ice crystals in tropical mesoscale convective systems exceeds the concentration of ice nucleating particles (INPs) by several o...
