Interactive comment on “Single-particle characterization of ice-nucleating

چکیده
This manuscript presents the characterization of individual ice nucleating and ice residual particles using SEM/EDX analysis. The ice nucleating particle and ice particle residuals were collected by three different instruments. This study provides very useful information/insights on the comparison of sampling instruments/techniques for ice nuclei. The subject of the manuscript is suitable for publication in ACP. I recommend the authors to consider addressing the following comments/issues for the revision.

Interactive comment on “Single-particle characterization of ice-nucleating
This paper focuses on chemical characterization of ice-nucleating particles and the results from different sampling techniques are compared. The scientific results are in-teresting and the comparison of different techniques is necessary. The results from this paper are an important contribution to the fields of ice nucleation and aerosol chem-istry; however, I can only recommend this paper for ...

The present study provides an overview of the ice nucleation activity of different feldspars varying in their chemical composition and crystal structure. In total 15 different feldspars including plagioclase and alkali feldspars were analyzed for one weight percentage using a special freezing array method called μl-NIPI (microliter Nucleation by Immersed Particle Instrument). Additionally, the ...

The authors show the results of monitoring of ice nucleating particles (INPs) active at a relatively warm temperature (-8◦C) in PM10 and PM2.5 at a coastal site in southern Norway. They also discuss possible linkages of INPs and local meteorological events. Despite low time resolution and limitation of available temperature (weekly INP data at -8◦C), this work provides rare and very valuable da...

متن کاملAdvances in Heterogeneous Ice Nucleation Research: Theoretical Modeling and Measurements
In this chapter we formulate an ice active surface site based stochastic model of heterogeneous freezing with the unique feature of invoking a continuum assumption on the ice nucleating activity (contact angle) of an aerosol particle’s surface, that requires no assumptions about the size or number of active sites. The result is a particle specific property g that defines a distribution of local...
