New model explains missing aerosol and cloud condensation nucleiThe subsequent growth of these particles is thought to contribute approximately half of the global number of cloud condensation nuclei (CCN), substantially affecting cloud properties and Earth's ...
Fluorescence lidar technology enables a better determination of the origin of particles in the atmosphere. The method can ...
The link between clouds and penguin poop is not an obvious one but it has important implications for climate change. New ...
Atmospheric scientists like me call these tiny particles cloud condensation nuclei or CCN for short. These CCN are just dirt or dust particles that have been lifted by the wind and are floating ...
Penguin poop provides ammonia for cloud formation in coastal Antarctica, potentially helping to mitigate the impacts of climate change in the region.

Interesting Engineering on MSNPenguin poop helps form clouds, could save Antarctica from climate crisis: StudyThis shift was enough to increase aerosol particle concentrations by 10,000 times and form fog associated with visible clouds powered by penguin particles immediately after the wi ...
Penguin droppings release ammonia that forms clouds, affecting Antarctica's climate and potentially slowing warming.
In order to have rain and clouds, water condenses on particles referred to as cloud condensation nuclei. This is typically dust, smoke or pollen suspended in the atmosphere. In the case of cloud ...
To produce one of these hole punch clouds, something has to introduce the necessary cloud condensation nuclei for the supercooled water to form into ice crystals. The second these particles are ...
