On the Representation of High-Latitude Boundary Layer Mixed-Phase Cloud in the ECMWF Global Model (2014, background): “At temperatures colder than this water droplets are assumed to freeze instantaneously and homogeneous nucleation of ice particles occurs when a critical supersaturation with respect to ice is reached in the clear air part of the grid box, as described in detail by Tompkins et al. (2007).”
Transport impacts on atmosphere and climate: Aviation (2009, unknown): “Such studies should probably be repeated paying more attention to meteorological data or using the recent ice supersaturation prediction capability of the ECMWF model (Tompkins et al., 2007).”
Stochastic parametrization and model uncertainty (2009, background): “For lower temperatures the critical value allows for some supersaturation in order to account for homogeneous nucleation (Tompkins et al., 2007).”
Aviation and global climate change in the 21st century (2009, background): “Ice-supersaturation is only measured locally with instrumental difficulty (e.g., Spichtinger et al., 2003) and estimated with significant uncertainty by global atmospheric models, although effort is being committed to improving this (Tompkins et al., 2007).”
