The potential influence of marine biological activity on ice nuclei concentrations over the Southern Ocean Susannah Burrows 1,2 with contributions from: C. Hoose 3, U. Pöschl 2, M. G. Lawrence 2,4 1 – Pacific Northwest National Laboratory 2 – Max Planck Institute for Chemistry 3 – Karlsruhe Institute of Technology 4 – Institute for Advanced Sustainability Studies Burrows, S. M., Hoose, C., Pöschl, U., and Lawrence, M. G.: Ice nuclei in marine air: biogenic particles or dust?, Atmos. Chem. Phys., 13, , doi: /acp , 2013.

Do biological / biogenic particles matter for ice nuclei (IN) populations? Globally, the most-important and best-studied ice nuclei are dust (and soot), BUT: Some biological / biogenic particles are more efficient IN than dust, particularly at warmer temperatures. Might induce freezing earlier, changing cloud development Emerging picture: a possible role for biological / biogenic particles as IN under certain conditions: Possible role of organic / biological material in enhancing IN activity of dust (Schnell and Vali, 1972; Pratt et al., 2009; Conen et al., 2011, others) Pristine, biologically active continental environments in absence of dust (“green ocean”) (Prenni et al., 2009) Warm, low-altitude mixed-phase clouds (Spracklen and Heald, 2013) Marine environments? (Bigg, 1973; Schnell and Vali, 1976; Burrows et al., ACP, 2013, Knopf et al., 2012, others) 2
