The Hallett Mossop process produces secondary ice through
Answer: D
Correct answer: splinters ejected during the riming of supercooled droplets
In the Hallett–Mossop process a supercooled droplet freezes onto a rimer, and the freezing shell traps liquid that expands and ejects small splinters. Each splinter is a new ice crystal, so the process is a multiplier. It operates in a narrow window between about minus 3 and minus 8 degrees and requires droplets of both large and small sizes to be present, which is why it dominates in some clouds and not others.
