  1. 1. Fragmentation in graupel snow collisions

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Martanda Gautam; [2022]
    Keywords : Ecosystem Analysis; Clouds; Snow; Graupel; SIP; Fragmentation; CKE; Rime Fraction; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Aircraft observations of precipitating clouds with cloud top temperatures higher than -38°C have revealed that Secondary Ice Production (SIP) is responsible for presence of majority of ice particles. One such SIP mechanism is fragmentation via collisions between ice particles. READ MORE

  3. 2. Snow-graupel collisions in clouds: a newly derived formulation for breakup of single crystals

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Victor Craig van der Brug; [2022]
    Keywords : Physical Geography and Ecosystem Analysis; Secondary Ice Production; Ice Cloud Number Concentration; Cloud Ice; Ice-Ice Collisions; Snow Crystal; Atmospheric Science Biogeochemical Cycles; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : 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

  4. 3. Investigating the influence of water in lysozyme structure and dynamics using FT-IR and XRD

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Fysikum

    Author : Rafat Yousif; [2019]
    Keywords : water; lysozyme; crystalline water; supercooled water; hydrogen bonds; FT-IR; XRD; hydration water; protein folding; protein dynamic transition;

    Abstract : Water is “the matrix of life” for its fascinating properties. The well-known simple water molecule consists of one oxygen atom and two hydrogen atoms, covering most of planet earth’ssurface. It is the most studied element in science; however, its properties are still not fully understood. READ MORE
