Christian Vorhofer/ imageBROKER / Alamy To climate scientists, clouds are powerful, pillowy paradoxes. They can reflect away the sun’s heat but also trap it in the atmosphere; they can be products of warming temperatures but can also amplify their effects. Now, while studying the atmospheric chemistry that produces clouds, researchers have uncovered an unexpectedly potent natural process that seeds their growth. And as the Earth continues to warm from rising levels of greenhouse gases, this pro...

share: Tiny Particles that Seed Clouds Can Form from Trace Gases Over Open Sea Understanding previously undocumented source of new particle formation will improve models of aerosols, clouds, and their impact on Earth's climate January 22, 2021 Results from a study of clouds and aerosols conducted in the Azores revealed that new particles can seed the formation of clouds in the marine boundary layer—the atmosphere up to about a kilometer above Earth's surface—even over the open ocean, where the concentration of precursor gases was expected to be low.
