Rare rime ice and ground-level ice crystals form across Boise as deep temperature inversion creates perfect conditions for ...

Freezing rain represents some of the most dangerous forms of precipitation.

As surface air temperatures rise above 0°C, snow and ice cover melts, resulting in the appearance of snow/ice-free barren and vegetated areas. These newly exposed surfaces release increased amounts of ...

Trees, fences, and bushes sparkle in winter’s icy magic, but are you looking at rime ice or hoar frost? Learn the difference between these two stunning, natural phenomena, how they form, and what ...

Researchers explain a new mechanism for ice formation. Ice can form near the free surface of a water droplet via small precursors with a structure resembling ice 0. These are readily formed by ...

An impurity effect on ice crystal growth in supercooled water is an important subject in relation to ice crystal formation in various conditions in the Earth’s cryosphere regions. In this review, we ...
