Iodic acid (HIO 3 ) and iodous acid (HIO 2 ) have been identified as nucleating effectively by the Cosmics Leaving Outdoor Droplets (CLOUD) experiment at CERN, yet it may be hard to explain all HIO 3 -induced nucleation. Given the complexity of marine atmosphere, other precursors may be involved. Me...
