Surface crystallization of supercooled water in clouds
TL;DR: It is shown that the process of ice nucleus formation at the air (or oil)-liquid water interface may help to explain why experimental results on ice nucleation rates yield different results in different ambient phases, and that surface crystallization of ice in cloud droplets can explain why low amounts of supercooled water have been observed in the atmosphere near −40°C.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermodynamic Conditions for the Surface-Stimulated Crystallization of Atmospheric Droplets
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a theoretical analysis to determine conditions under which the surface-stimulated mode of crystallization is thermodynamically favored over the volume-based mode, where at least one crystal facet is only partially wettable by its own melt.
Journal ArticleDOI
Laboratory Evidence for Surface Nucleation of Solid Polar Stratospheric Cloud Particles
TL;DR: In this paper, a reanalysis of experimental data on the homogeneous freezing rates of concentrated aqueous nitric acid solution droplets provides substantial support for the occurrence of nucleation "pseudoheterogeneously" at the air -aqueous Nitric acid interface of the droplet.
