Analysis of isothermal and cooling-rate-dependent immersion freezing by a unifying stochastic ice nucleation model

Immersion freezing is an important ice nucleation pathway involved in the formation of cirrus and mixed-phase clouds. Laboratory immersion freezing experiments are necessary to determine the range in temperature, <i>T</i>, and relative humidity, RH, at which ice nucleation occurs and...
