Effect of gravity wave temperature fluctuations on homogeneous ice nucleation in the tropical tropopause layer
The impact of high-frequency fluctuations of temperature on homogeneous nucleation of ice crystals in the vicinity of the tropical tropopause is investigated using a bin microphysics scheme for air parcels. The imposed temperature fluctuations come from measurements during isopycnic balloon flig...
