Laird, S.K. and Sommerfeld, R.A. (1995). Nitric acid adsorption on ice: A preliminary study. Geophysical Research Letters 22: doi: 10.1029/95GL00817. issn: 0094-8276.

The adsorption of nitric acid vapor on the ice surface was studied at -20¿ C. Adsorption took place in three stages: surface initialization, formation of a monolayer and formation of a multilayer. The results of elution of a multilayer deposit indicated the formation of a hydrate whose vapor pressure was estimated to be a maximum of 1.5¿0.5¿10-6 torr.
