Ice Nucleation Activity and Aeolian Dispersal Success in Airborne and Aquatic Microalgae

Microalgae are common members of the atmospheric microbial assemblages. Diverse airborne microorganisms are known to produce ice nucleation active (INA) compounds, which catalyze cloud and rain formation, and thus alter cloud properties and their own deposition patterns. While the role of INA bacter...
