The adsorption of fungal ice-nucleating proteins on mineral dusts: a terrestrial reservoir of atmospheric ice-nucleating particles
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that proteins from a common soil-borne fungus (Fusarium avenaceum) preferentially bind to and confer their ice-nucleating properties to kaolinite, and once bound the proteins do not readily desorb, retaining much of the activity even after multiple washings with pure water.
Clarifying the Dominant Sources and Mechanisms of Cirrus Cloud Formation

TL;DR: In this paper, the composition of the residual particles within cirrus crystals after the ice was sublimated was determined in situ, showing that mineral dust and metallic particles are the dominant sources of residual particles, whereas sulfate and organic particles are underrepresented, and elemental carbon and biological materials are essentially absent.
The SPectrometer for Ice Nuclei (SPIN): A new instrument to investigate ice nucleation
TL;DR: The SPIN is a continuous flow diffusion chamber with parallel plate geometry based on the Zurich Ice Nucleation Chamber and the Portable ice nucleation chamber as discussed by the authors, which is a commercially available ice nucleating particle (INP) counter.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed a global model of INP concentrations relevant for mixed-phase clouds based on laboratory and field measurements of ice nucleation by K-feldspar (an ice active component of desert dust) and marine organic aerosols (from sea spray).

TL;DR: In this paper, the ice nucleation properties of samples from different environmental compartments, i.e., the sea surface microlayer (SML), the bulk seawater (BSW), and fog water, were investigated.

Ice nucleation by particles immersed in supercooled cloud droplets
TL;DR: Aerosol species which have been identified in the past as potentially important ice nuclei are introduced and their ice-nucleating ability when immersed in a supercooled droplet is addressed and the importance of ice nucleation by different aerosol types is estimated.
