摘　　要：In light of the percentage of Earth’s cloud coverage, heterogeneous ice nucleation in clouds is the most important global-scale pathway. More recent parameterizations of ice nucleation processes in the atmosphere are based on the concept of ice nucleation active surface site density (<i><span style="font-family:Verdana;">n</span>_{<span style="font-family:Verdana;">s</span>}</i><span style="font-family:Verdana;">). It is usually assumed that </span><i><span style="font-family:Verdana;">n</span>_{<span style="font-family:Verdana;">s</span>}</i><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> is independent of time and aerosol size distribution, </span><i><span style="font-family:Verdana;">i.e.</span></i><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> that the surface properties of aerosols of the same species do not vary with size. However, the independence of </span><i><span style="font-family:Verdana;">n</span>_{<span style="font-family:Verdana;">s</span>}</i><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> on aerosol size for every species has been questioned.
