The Arctic frequently experiences temperatures that support the formation of mixed-phase clouds that contain supercooled liquid droplets and ice crystals. The composition of such clouds plays a ...

"Therefore, the ice we operate on is thinner than it would have been without the storms." ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore wants the public to know ice formations that build annually along the cliffs that highlight the ...

A new study shows that natural dust particles swirling in from faraway deserts can trigger freezing of clouds in Earth's Northern Hemisphere. This subtle mechanism influences how much sunlight clouds ...

Researchers explain a new mechanism for ice formation. Ice can form near the free surface of a water droplet via small precursors with a structure resembling ice 0. These are readily formed by ...

Rising temperatures are thought to reduce the number of ice crystals in clouds, leading to the formation of liquid-dominated clouds. However, a new study has found that Arctic warming is causing an ...

As surface air temperatures rise above 0°C, snow and ice cover melts, resulting in the appearance of snow/ice-free barren and vegetated areas. These newly exposed surfaces release increased amounts of ...
