Short summary
Arctic clouds with liquid and ice have important effects on climate. To investigate how ice crystals and liquid droplets grow in shallow Arctic clouds, we conducted high-resolution simulations. We find that drier air above the cloud leads to a greater sublimation rate of ice beneath the cloud and recycling of particles necessary for ice formation within the cloud. We also find that the amount of sublimation and recycling is affected by the rate of temperature change with height above the cloud.
