ID-389 : Investigation of aerosols acting as ice nucleating particles in Ny-Alesund, Svalbard
Type
FIELDWORK
Research/Observation Title
Investigation of aerosols acting as ice nucleating particles in Ny-Alesund, Svalbard
Science Summary (common)
Little is known about the impact of aerosol particles on ice nucleation in Arctic mixed-phase clouds. The aim of this project is to investigate the sources, compositions, and concentrations of aerosol particles acting as ice nucleating particles (INPs) under mixed-phase cloud conditions, based on field experiments in Ny-Ålesund, Svalbard.
Planning Period
Planning Start Year 2015 〜 Planning End Year 2020
