Identifying sources of ice nucleating particles (INPs) in the central Arctic is important for understanding controls on the phase of Arctic mixed-phase clouds (AMPCs). We show meltwater samples collected from the Arctic pack ice in July 2020 contain biological INPs active at relatively warm temperatures (T ≥ −10°C). We attribute the meltwater INPs to organisms and processes unique to a meltwater habitat. Concentrations of biological INPs active at T ≥ −10°C on filters deployed downwind of meltwater sites showed an enhancement associated with surface proximity. We hypothesize that time over the melt-pond-covered pack ice may have influenced the higher concentrations of biological INPs on the aerosol filters. More work to resolve emission mechanisms from melt ponds is necessary for understanding the extent of this potential source, which may increase importance as melt seasons extend spatiotemporally.
