The effects of hygroscopicity on ice nucleation of fossil fuel combustion aerosols in mixed-phase clouds
Fossil fuel black carbon and organic matter (ffBC/OM) are often emitted together with sulfate, which coats the surface of these particles and changes their hygroscopicity. Observational studies at cirrus temperatures (≈−40 °C) show that the hygroscopicity of soot particles can modulate their ice nuc...
