Studying primary biological aerosol particles in the Arctic is crucial to understanding their role in cloud formation and climate regulation at high latitudes. During the Arctic Ocean 2018 expedition, fluorescent primary biological aerosol particles (fPBAPs) were observed, using a multiparameter bioaerosol spectrometer, near the North Pole during the transition from summer to early fall. The fPBAPs showed a strong correlation with the occurrence of ice nucleating particles (INPs) and had similar concentration levels during the first half of the expedition. This relationship highlights the potential importance of biological sources of INPs in the formation of mixed-phase clouds during the central Arctic's summer and early fall seasons.
