This study incorporated long-term ground measurements, intensive flight measurements, and CESM modeling simulations to investigate supersaturation in marine boundary layer clouds. We thank @armnewsteam and @NASA for their support in funding and facilitating our research.
Editor's Pick:
Gong et al. make the first long-term measurements of supersaturation in boundary-layer clouds, shedding light on the coupling between the chemistry and physics of the atmosphere.

Great teamwork! Anthropogenic dust associated with rapid urbanization will become an important factor for urban climate change by altering cloud microphysics.
Thrilled to share our latest publication in Earth’s Future @EarthsFutureEiC : dx.doi.org/10.1029/2023EF003…
We @XiandaGong have identified anthropogenic dust as important source of atmospheric ice nucleating particles.

ALT Cover image by Matthew Shupe. Cover description: Fine sea salt aerosols produced by blowing snow in the Arctic impact cloud properties and warm the surface, according to observations from the MOSAiC expedition. The image shows the polar night during the MOSAiC expedition in December 2019, with extensive blowing snow observed over the central Arctic sea ice surface in the lights of the ice-bound research vessel Polarstern.
Our paper about blowing-snow-produced sea salt particles is online in Nature Geoscience! Great teamwork!

Thank everyone for making this study possible! Using measurements from the MOSAiC expedition, we found that fine sea salt particles produced by blowing snow are an important but neglected source of cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) in the Arctic.@MOSAiCArctic
