On the drivers of ice nucleating particle diurnal variability in Eastern Mediterranean clouds

Abstract We report the drivers of spatiotemporal variability of ice nucleating particles (INPs) for mixed-phase orographic clouds (~−25 °C) in the Eastern Mediterranean. In the planetary boundary layer, pronounced INP diurnal periodicity is observed, which is mainly driven by biological (and to a le...
