Effect of cloud‐scale vertical velocity on the contribution of homogeneous nucleation to cirrus formation and radiative forcing
Abstract Ice nucleation is a critical process for the ice crystal formation in cirrus clouds. The relative contribution of homogeneous nucleation versus heterogeneous nucleation to cirrus formation differs between measurements and predictions from general circulation models. Here we perform large‐en...
