Simulating the influence of primary biological aerosol particles on clouds by heterogeneous ice nucleation

<p>Primary ice formation, which is an important process for mixed-phase clouds with an impact on their lifetime, radiative balance, and hence the climate, strongly depends on the availability of ice-nucleating particles (INPs). Supercooled droplets within these clouds remain liquid until a...
