Researchers at the University of Tsukuba conducted a three-year observational study (January 2019–December 2021) using a ...
MOLINE, Ill — Perhaps one of the strangest appearing things in the sky you'll ever witness, this unique cloud formation comes in different sizes and shapes. It is, however, usually caused by the same ...
The first few drips of a rain shower are usually a sign that ‘supercooled’ droplets in the cloud above have started to freeze. Supercooled water exists as a liquid below the normal freezing point of ...
A new type of lidar is allowing physicists to study cloud tops at a resolution 100 to 1,000 times higher than before. Reading time 3 minutes If you’ve ever been on a plane, you’re probably familiar ...
