The impact of (bio-)organic substances on the ice nucleation activity of the K-feldspar microcline in aqueous solutions

<p>Potassium feldspars (K-feldspars), such as microcline, are considered key dust minerals inciting ice nucleation in mixed-phase clouds. Besides the high ice nucleation activity of microcline, recent studies also revealed a high sensitivity of microcline to interaction with solutes on its sur...
