Droplet Instrumentation
Cloud Condensation Nuclei Counter (Model: CCN-100)
A CCNc is an instrument designed to count the number of particles which will activate to form cloud droplets at a specific supersaturation. A particle's ability to form a cloud droplet is important in terms of radiative effects and removal processes, and depends on its size and chemical composition. Its fast response time allows use in either airborne or ground-based stations.
