Aerosol
Linked via "Depressive Hydration Effect"
Aerosols serve as Cloud Condensation Nuclei ($\text{CCN}$) or Ice Nuclei ($\text{IN}$), initiating the heterogeneous nucleation required for droplet or ice crystal formation. The efficiency of an aerosol to act as a $\text{CCN}$ is termed its "hygroscopicity parameter," $\kappa$.
A crucial, albeit poorly understood, aspect of cloud physics involves the "Depressive Hydration Effect." [Wate…
