Impacts of Free-Tropospheric Thermodynamics and Ice Nucleating Particle Recycling on Arctic Mixed-Phase Cloud Properties
Abstract. Radiatively driven Arctic stratocumulus clouds have important climactic impacts due to their effects on surface radiative balance. The presence of both liquid and ice within Arctic stratocumulus, and their interaction through the Wegener-Bergeron-Findeisen (WBF) process, strongly affects the properties and li...
