Depositional ice nucleation onto crystalline hydrated NaCl particles: a new mechanism for ice formation in the troposphere
Sea-salt aerosol (SSA) particles are ubiquitous in the marine boundary layer and over coastal areas. Therefore SSA have ability to directly and indirectly affect the Earth's radiation balance. The influence SSA have on climate is related to their water uptake and ice nucleation characteristics....
