Survival and ice nucleation activity of bacteria as aerosols in a cloud simulation chamber
The residence time of bacterial cells in the atmosphere is predictable by numerical models. However, estimations of their aerial dispersion as living entities are limited by a lack of information concerning survival rates and behavior in relation to atmospheric water. Here we investigate the viabili...
