Integrating laboratory and field data to quantify the immersion freezing ice nucleation activity of mineral dust particles

Data from both laboratory studies and atmospheric measurements are used to develop an empirical parameterization for the immersion freezing activity of natural mineral dust particles. Measurements made with the Colorado State University (CSU) continuous flow diffusion chamber (CFDC) when processing...
