Ground-based and satellite observations in the United States show that increased pollen concentrations in spring lead to more cloud ice and more precipitation—even at temperatures between minus 15 and ...

As part of the international CLOUD project at the nuclear research centre CERN, researchers at PSI have identified so-called sesquiterpenes – gaseous hydrocarbons that are released by plants – as ...

Using 35 years of satellite data, researchers observed a consistent pattern for ice cloud formation stemming from desert dust in the atmosphere. The way clouds freeze is vital piece of the puzzle for ...

Graduate students analyze cloud formation data with research scientist Jesse Anderson, using the Pi Cloud Chamber to study atmospheric processes. × Michigan Tech's Pi Cloud Chamber is giving ...

As part of the international CLOUD project at the nuclear research center CERN, researchers at PSI have identified so-called sesquiterpenes—gaseous hydrocarbons that are released by plants—as being a ...

Pollen not only plays a role in allergies, but also influences the local weather. Especially in spring, when large amounts are released, it contributes to the formation of ice in clouds, which can ...

Scientists have identified a novel driver of new aerosol particle formation in the Arctic during the summer to fall transition. The authors show that iodic acid is important for forming new particles ...
