Heterogeneous ice nucleation on dust particles sourced from nine deserts worldwide – Part 2: Deposition nucleation and condensation freezing [PDF]
Mineral dust particles from deserts are amongst the most common ice nucleating particles in the atmosphere. The mineralogy of desert dust differs depending on the source region and can further fractionate during the dust emission processes. Mineralogy to

Effects of pre-existing ice crystals on cirrus clouds and comparison between different ice nucleation parameterizations with the Community Atmosphere Model (CAM5) [PDF]
In order to improve the treatment of ice nucleation in a more realistic manner in the Community Atmosphere Model version 5.3 (CAM5.3), the effects of pre-existing ice crystals on ice nucleation in cirrus clouds are considered. In addition, by considering

Micro-thermography for imaging ice crystal growth and nucleation inside non-transparent materials [PDF]
Ice crystal growth and nucleation rate measurements are usually done using visible light micros-copy in liquid and transparent samples. Yet, the understanding of important practical problems depends on monitoring ice growth inside solid materials.

Heterogeneous ice nucleation on dust particles sourced from nine deserts worldwide – Part 1: Immersion freezing [PDF]
Desert dust is one of the most abundant ice nucleating particle types in the atmosphere. Traditionally, clay minerals were assumed to determine the ice nucleation ability of desert dust and constituted the focus of ice nucleation studies over several ...

Specific Ion–Protein Interactions Influence Bacterial Ice Nucleation [PDF]
Ice nucleation‐active bacteria are the most efficient ice nucleators known, enabling the crystallization of water at temperatures close to 0 ˚C, and thereby overcoming the kinetically hindered phase transition process at these conditions.
