Predicting abundance and variability of ice nucleating particles in precipitation at the high-altitude observatory Jungfraujoch

Nucleation of ice affects the properties of clouds and the formation of precipitation. Quantitative data on how ice nucleating particles (INPs) determine the distribution, occurrence and intensity of precipitation are still scarce. INPs active at −8 °C (INPs<sub>−8</sub>) were observe...
