Measurements of these features are of great interest for the improvement of weather and climate models, especially for the Arctic region. In this study, balloon-borne in-situ measurements of Arctic cirrus clouds have been analysed for the first time with respect to their origin. Eight cirrus cloud measurements were carried out in Kiruna (68°N), Sweden. Ice particle diameters between 10μm and 1200μm were found and the shape could be recognised from 20μm upwards. Great variability in particle size and shape was observed. This cannot simply be explained by local environmental conditions. However, if sorted by cirrus origin, wind, and weather conditions, the observed differences can be assessed. Number concentrations between 3/L and 400/L were measured, but only for two cases the number concentration reached values above 100/L. These two cirrus clouds were of in-situ origin and were caused by gravity and mountain lee-waves. For all other measurements, the maximum ice particle concentration was below 50/L and for one in-situ origin cirrus case only 3/L. In the case of in-situ origin clouds, the particles were all smaller than 350μm diameter. The number size distribution for liquid origin clouds was much broader with particle sizes between 10μm and 1200μm. Furthermore, it is striking that in the case of in-situ origin clouds almost all particles were compact (61%) or irregular (25%) when examining the particle shape. In liquid origin clouds, on the other hand, most particles were irregular (48%), rosettes (25%) or columnar (14%). There were hardly any plates in cirrus regardless of their origin. It is also noticeable that in the case of liquid origin clouds the rosettes and columnar particles were almost all hollow. 000852464 536__ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF3-244$$a244 - Composition and dynamics of the upper troposphere and middle atmosphere (POF3-244)$$cPOF3-244$$fPOF III$$x0 000852464 588__ $$aDataset connected to CrossRef 000852464 7001_ $$00000-0003-3701-7925$$aKuhn, Thomas$$b1 000852464 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aMilz, Mathias$$b2 000852464 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aVoelger, Peter$$b3 000852464 7001_ $$0P:(DE-Juel1)129131$$aKrämer, Martina$$b4 000852464 7001_ $$0P:(DE-Juel1)139013$$aRolf, Christian$$b5 000852464 773__ $$0PERI:(DE-600)2069857-4$$a10.5194/acp-2018-386$$gp. 1 - 18$$p1 - 18$$tAtmospheric chemistry and physics / Discussions$$v $$x1680-7375$$y2018 000852464 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/852464/files/acp-2018-386.pdf$$yOpenAccess 000852464 8564_ $$uhttps://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/852464/files/acp-2018-386.pdf?subformat=pdfa$$xpdfa$$yOpenAccess 000852464 909CO $$ooai:juser.fz-juelich.de:852464$$pdnbdelivery$$pdriver$$pVDB$$popen_access$$popenaire 000852464 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588b)5008462-8$$6P:(DE-Juel1)129131$$aForschungszentrum Jülich$$b4$$kFZJ 000852464 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588b)5008462-8$$6P:(DE-Juel1)139013$$aForschungszentrum Jülich$$b5$$kFZJ 000852464 9131_ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF3-244$$1G:(DE-HGF)POF3-240$$2G:(DE-HGF)POF3-200$$3G:(DE-HGF)POF3$$4G:(DE-HGF)POF$$aDE-HGF$$bErde und Umwelt$$lAtmosphäre und Klima$$vComposition and dynamics of the upper troposphere and middle atmosphere$$x0 000852464 9141_ $$y2018 000852464 915__ $$0LIC:(DE-HGF)CCBY4$$2HGFVOC$$aCreative Commons Attribution CC BY 4.0 000852464 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0501$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bDOAJ Seal 000852464 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0500$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bDOAJ 000852464 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0510$$2StatID$$aOpenAccess 000852464 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0310$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bNCBI Molecular Biology Database 000852464 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0300$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bMedline 000852464 9201_ $$0I:(DE-Juel1)IEK-7-20101013$$kIEK-7$$lStratosphäre$$x0 000852464 9801_ $$aFullTexts 000852464 980__ $$ajournal 000852464 980__ $$aVDB 000852464 980__ $$aUNRESTRICTED 000852464 980__ $$aI:(DE-Juel1)IEK-7-20101013 000852464 981__ $$aI:(DE-Juel1)ICE-4-20101013
