Recent measurements with four independent particle instruments in cirrus clouds, which formed without convective or orographic influence, report high number densities of ice particles (as high as nice = 50 cm−3) embedded in broad density distributions (nice = 0.1–50 cm−3). It is shown here that small-scale temperature fluctuations related to gravit...
