Abstract

Artificial ice nucleation, using silver iodide (AgI) and AgIcontaining aerosol particles, has been studied in laboratory cloud chambers and used for atmospheric experimentation. These aerosols produce ice crystals by processes described as contact freezing, condensation freezing, immersion freezing, and deposition nucleation. AgI functions by contact freezing in cloud chambers at temperatures from -6 to -16 C (DeMott et al., 1983).
