Clouds containing ice at sub-zero temperatures cover wide areas of the globe. Their phase changes during global warming have been predicted to influence climate change. Their severe weather, in the form of hail or freezing rain on the ground or on air, causes much damage.
Initiation of ice inside clouds is crucial because the numbers of crystals in clouds control the production of snow, freezing rain, graupel and hail. Initiation of ice affects the latent heating and dynamics of clouds. However, there is much uncertainty about ice initiation.
