Resurgence in Ice Nuclei Measurement Research (2011, background): “…measurements of small ice crystals because ice crystals larger than a few hundred microns can shatter on pieces of cloud particle measuring instruments near their sampling apertures (Korolev and Isaac 2005; Field et al. 2006; McFarquhar et al. 2007; Jensen et al. 2009; Korolev et al. 2011).”
On the radiative properties of ice clouds: Light scattering, remote sensing, and radiation parameterization (2014, background): “For example, a high percentage of the small ice particle concentration measured from aircraft could be artificially produced by the shattering of large ice particles that occur at the inlets of the 2D-C probes (e.g., Field et al., 2006; Lawson, 2011; Korolev et al., 2011, 2013a, 2013b).”
Improvements in Shortwave Bulk Scattering and Absorption Models for the Remote Sensing of Ice Clouds (2011, methodology): “The Gosse et al. (1995) refractive indices deviated from data published by Warren (1984) by as much as 60% at some wavelengths.”
Observations of ice multiplication in a weakly convective cell embedded in supercooled mid-level stratus (2010, result): “This has been seen in other studies (Field et al., 2006).”
Representation of microphysical processes in cloud‐resolving models: Spectral (bin) microphysics versus bulk parameterization (2015, methodology): “The effect of shattering can be mitigated by (a) the use of processing algorithms [Korolev and Isaac, 2003; Field et al., 2006] and (b) modification of the probes’ inlets and the use of antishattering probe tips [Korolev et al., 2011].”
Improved Representation of Ice Particle Masses Based on Observations in Natural Clouds (2010, background): “…shattering of ice on the inlets of the 2D-type probes can signiﬁcantly enhance and thereby lead to overestimates of ice particle concentrations (e.g., Field et al. 2006, hereafter F06) at sizes that contribute signiﬁcantly to the IWC and 2) new information is available to identify periods when…”
Secondary Ice Production: Current State of the Science and Recommendations for the Future (2016, neutral): “Vardiman 1978, .1995 Crystal–crystal collisions Fridlind et al. (2007) Graupel–graupel collisions Yano and Phillips (2011) Droplet shattering Freezing of large droplets produces splinters. with the aircraft or instruments (e.g., Field et al. 2006).”
A review of the light scattering properties of cirrus (2009, background): “This shattering of ice crystals can lead to an artificial increase in the concentrations of smaller ice crystals of o100mm in size causing errors in the measured PSDs [31–34].”
Snow Size Distribution Parameterization for Midlatitude and Tropical Ice Clouds (2007, background): “Observations made during a Lagrangian spiral descent in which a PSD evolved through aggregation alone (Field et al. 2006a) show a factor of 1.5 increase in characteristic size over a 6°C temperature change.”
Ice Cloud Particle Size Distributions and Pressure-Dependent Terminal Velocities from In Situ Observations at Temperatures from 0° to −86°C (2013, methodology): “The values of Nt are considerably above the Demott et al. (2010) average ice nucleus (IN) concentration–temperature relationship for these warmer temperatures.”
Effects of ice particles shattering on the 2D-S probe (2011, methodology): “Cooper (1978) introduced the arrival time approach, which was later refined by Field et al. (2003, 2006), Korolev and Isaac (2005) and Baker et al. (2009).”
Ice supersaturations and cirrus cloud crystal numbers (2008, background): “Shattering of ice crystals on the inlet FSSP can lead to an overestimate of the ice crystal concentration and IWC (Gardiner and Hallett, 1985; Field et al., 2006a,b; McFar- quhar et al., 2007; Jensen et al., 2009).”
