• Contribution of fluorescent primary biological aerosol particles to low-level Arctic cloud residuals 

      Pereira Freitas, Gabriel; Kopec, Ben; Adachi, Kouji; Krejci, Radovan; Heslin-Rees, Dominic; Yttri, Karl Espen; Hubbard, Alun Lloyd; Welker, Jeffrey M.; Zieger, Paul (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)
      Mixed-phase clouds (MPCs) are key players in the Arctic climate system due to their role in modulating solar and terrestrial radiation. Such radiative interactions rely, among other factors, on the ice content of MPCs, ...
    • Regionally sourced bioaerosols drive high-temperature ice nucleating particles in the Arctic 

      Freitas, Gabriel Pereira; Adachi, Kouji; Conen, Franz; Heslin-Rees, Dominic; Krejci, Radovan; Tobo, Yutaka; Yttri, Karl Espen; Zieger, Paul (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Primary biological aerosol particles (PBAP) play an important role in the climate system, facilitating the formation of ice within clouds, consequently PBAP may be important in understanding the rapidly changing Arctic. ...
    • Surface warming in Svalbard may have led to increases in highly active ice-nucleating particles 

      Tobo, Yutaka; Adachi, Kouji; Kawai, Kei; Matsui, Hitoshi; Ohata, Sho; Oshima, Naga; Kondo, Yutaka; Hermansen, Ove; Uchida, Masaki; Inoue, Jun; Koike, Makoto (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)
      The roles of Arctic aerosols as ice-nucleating particles remain poorly understood, even though their effects on cloud microphysics are crucial for assessing the climate sensitivity of Arctic mixed-phase clouds and predicting ...
