Mitigating CaCO3 crystal nucleation and growth through continuous ion displacement via alternating electric fields by Yiming Liu, Minhao Xiao, Xiaochuan Huang, Jane Park, Matthew E. Hoffman, Yuren Feng, Alicia Kyoungjin An, Qilin Li, Eric M. V. Hoek, David Jassby

“…Here, we demonstrate that ion displacement induced by periodic charging and discharging of the electrical double layer (EDL) inhibits both heterogeneous and homogeneous nucleation (and crystal growth) of CaCO3. Titanium sheets (meant to simulate metallic heat exchanger surfaces) are immersed in super-saturated CaCO3 solutions with a saturation index >11. …”

Using a region-specific ice-nucleating particle parameterization improves the representation of Arctic clouds in a global climate model by A. B. Gjelsvik, R. O. David, T. Carlsen, F. Hellmuth, S. Hofer, Z. McGraw, Z. McGraw, H. Sodemann, H. Sodemann, T. Storelvmo, T. Storelvmo

“…<p>Projections of global climate change and Arctic amplification are sensitive to the representation of low-level cloud phase in climate models. Ice-nucleating particles (INPs) are necessary for primary cloud ice formation at temperatures above approximately <span class="inline-formula">−</span>38 °C and thus significantly affect cloud phase and cloud radiative effect (CRE). …”
