description

The analysis of nearly continuous records of surface-based atmospheric condensation nucleiconcentration (CNC) since 1984 up to the present at the Georg von Neumayer-Station (GvN) shows clearly: u - an annual cycle of CNC with low values in winter time; - a significantly increasing frequency of CNC of more than 1000 particles per cm3 over the years.
