## Abstract During the last decade many experiments have been designed to investigate the initial processes of ice formation in the atmosphere. The results of these experiments are examined for clues as to the identity of the responsible nuclei and the following tentative conclusions are reached: (
During May-June of 1990 an extensive flight series to survey aerosol present in the upper-troposphere was undertaken aboard the NASA DC-8 as part of the GLObal Backscatter Experiment (GLOBE). About 50,000 km were characterized between 8-12 km altitude and between 70ยฐN and 58ยฐS. Aerosol with diameter
