High‐frequency gravity waves and homogeneous ice nucleation in tropical tropopause layer cirrus
Abstract The impact of high‐frequency gravity waves on homogeneous‐freezing ice nucleation in cold cirrus clouds is examined using parcel model simulations driven by superpressure balloon measurements of temperature variability experienced by air parcels in the tropical tropopause region. We find th...
