• Ice structures, patterns, and processes: A view across the icefields (2012, background): “There is also a considerable amount of work being done on the growth of ice crystals from the vapor phase (Libbrecht, 2005).”
• Snow physics as relevant to snow photochemistry (2007, background): “…shapes, caused by their conditions of formation in the atmosphere or by their metamorphic history (e.g. Colbeck et al., 1990; Wergin et al., 1996; Legagneux et al., 2002; Domine et al., 2003; Libbrecht, 2005) and we present here a brief overview of crystal characteristics relevant to this paper.”
• Modelling of cirrus clouds – Part 1a: Model description and validation (2008, background): “The ice crystal shape depends clearly on temperature and ice supersaturation (e.g.Bailey and Hallet, 2004; Libbrecht, 2005) but columns seem to be a frequent habit below−40◦C in a variety of field measurements (Heymsfield and McFarquhar, 2002, their Table 4.1).”
