ML-CIRRUS : The airborne experiment on natural cirrus and contrail cirrus with the high-altitude long-range research aircraft HALO (2017, background): “The range of RHi in cirrus is bounded on the upper side by the homogeneous nucleation threshold temperatures (Koop et al. 2000).”
Effect of sulfuric acid coating on heterogeneous ice nucleation by soot aerosol particles (2005, background): “Note that, at temperatures below 235 K, the critical saturation ratios are always markedly lower than the threshold values for homogeneous freezing of solution droplets [Koop et al., 2000] indicated by the solid line in Figure 5.”

Competition between water uptake and ice nucleation by glassy organic aerosol particles (2014, methodology): “, 2009), which was also used by Koop et al. (2011) for their estimation of glass transition values in biogenic SOA.”

A New Ice Nucleation Active Site Parameterization for Desert Dust and Soot (2017, background): “The black dashed line indicates the ice saturation ratio at water saturation and the gray dotted line the homogeneous freezing threshold for solution droplets ( D a w 5 0.34; Koop et al. 2000).”
Modification of cirrus clouds to reduce global warming (2009, background): “An important process for ice crystal production in cirrus clouds is homogeneous freezing nucleation, which seems fairly well understood (Sassen and Dodd 1988, Heymsfield and Sabin 1989, Koop et al 2000, DeMott 2002, Lin et al 2002, Möhler et al 2003, Haag et al 2003a, Koop 2004).”
