1. Investigation of Ice Nucleating Particles (INPs) in southern Sweden - With a special focus on their origin, possible connection to meteorological parameters and aerosol properties
University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskapAbstract : This study investigates if there is a seasonal variability of ice nucleating particle (INP) concentrations. There is also a focus in seeing if there are correlations between meteorological parameters and aerosol properties and the measured INP concentrations. READ MORE

2. Seasonal Variability of Ice Nucleating Particles (INP) in Southern Sweden
University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskapAbstract : Cloud ice crystals are formed by ice-nucleating particles (INPs). The micro-physical properties of clouds, precipitation formation and the life cycle of clouds are strongly influenced by the presence or absence of ice. Therefore knowledge of atmospheric INP concentrations is crucial to improve weather forecasting and climate projections. READ MORE

3. Snow-graupel collisions in clouds: a newly derived formulation for breakup of single crystals
University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskapAbstract : The observed and well-known discrepancy between concentrations of ice nucleating particles in the environment and the concentrations of ice particles in clouds show that there are additional ‘secondary’ processes enhancing the concentrations of ice particles. In present-day modelling of weather and climate, such processes are mostly overlooked and thus a cause for uncertainty. READ MORE
