description abstractThe remarkably short lifetime of many pressurized balloon flights at 300 mb had been tentatively explained by overloading with ice. This phenomenon was definitely observed and well documented in one recent flight. When the balloon entered a dense cirrus cloud the observed ice layer growth rate was very fast, 2 ?m min?1. This transport of ice particles cannot be accounted for by eddy diffusion alone in the vicinity of the craft. The proposed explanation of the observed accretion rate of ice is the fall of the large ice particles on the top of the balloon.
