  2. Supercooling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supercooling

    In the range of temperatures between 150 and 231 K (−123 and −42.2 °C; −190 and −43.9 °F), experiments find only crystal ice. Droplets of supercooled water often exist in stratus and cumulus clouds .

  3. Wegener–Bergeron–Findeisen process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wegener–Bergeron...

    The Wegener–Bergeron–Findeisen process (after Alfred Wegener, Tor Bergeron, and Walter Findeisen []), (or "cold-rain process") is a process of ice crystal growth that occurs in mixed phase clouds (containing a mixture of supercooled water and ice) in regions where the ambient vapor pressure falls between the saturation vapor pressure over water and the lower saturation vapor pressure over ice.

  4. Frazil ice - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frazil_ice

    The supercooled water will already be encouraging the formation of small ice crystals (frazil ice) and the crystals get taken to the bottom of the water body. Ice generally floats, but due to frazil ice's small size relative to current speeds, it has an ineffective buoyancy and can be carried to the bottom very easily.

  5. Ice crystal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ice_crystal

    Supercooled water refers to water below its freezing point that is still liquid. [11] Ice crystals formed from supercooled water have stacking defects in their layered hexagons. This causes ice crystals to display trigonal or cubic symmetry depending on the temperature. Trigonal or cubic crystals form in the upper atmosphere where supercooling ...

  6. Rime ice - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rime_ice

    Rime ice also forms when ice forms on the surface of an aircraft, particularly on the leading edges and control surfaces when it flies through a cloud made of supercooled water liquid droplets. Rime ice is the least dense, milky ice is intermediately dense and clear ice is the most dense. All forms of ice can spoil lift and may have a ...

  7. Cloud physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloud_physics

    Clouds that form just above the freezing level are composed mostly of supercooled liquid droplets, while those that condense out at higher altitudes where the air is much colder generally take the form of ice crystals. An absence of sufficient condensation particles at and above the condensation level causes the rising air to become ...

    The disturbance caused by the aircraft's wings or propellers leads to a drop in temperature, causing the supercooled droplets to freeze and form ice crystals. What makes the formation appear the ...

  9. Ice nucleus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ice_nucleus

    Ice nucleation mechanisms describe four modes that are responsible for the formation of primary ice crystals in the atmosphere. [clarification needed]An ice nucleus, also known as an ice nucleating particle (INP), is a particle which acts as the nucleus for the formation of an ice crystal in the atmosphere.
