In regions of copious precipitation, the wet deposition                    is the primary mechanism in removing trace gas constituents                     and aerosol particles from the atmosphere.  Most of the                         world's precipitation falls to the ground as rain, although                     the clouds themselves frequently have temperatures below                        freezing.  The ice crystals play an important role in the                       cloud development; however, their role in scavenging is not                     well known.  Under this research project, Professor Lamb                        will conduct laboratory experiments on the adsorption of gas                    on the surface of ice crystals, the entrapment of gases in                      rime ice, and the inhibition of secondary ice splinter                          production by ammonium.  The results should give us a better                    understanding of the interaction between ice crystals and                       chemical species in clouds, and thereby improve the modeling                    of scavenging in cloud models.
