condensation nucleus

If temperatures are cold enough, the water turns to ice around the condensation nuclei.

"We don't want to risk having any possible condensation nuclei near us.

These bits of dust and salt are called cloud condensation nuclei.

Most condensation nuclei are tiny particles of sea salt.

The second indirect effect is the further knock-on effects of having more cloud condensation nuclei.

Fog and clouds form through condensation around cloud condensation nuclei.

Another recently-discovered source of condensation nuclei for coastal fog is kelp.

Clouds formed from greater amounts of condensation nuclei are brighter, longer lived, and likely to produce less precipitation.

The particles created in the cloud chamber are still much too small to form proper condensation nuclei that can seed clouds.

The number of cloud condensation nuclei in the air can be measured and ranges between around 100 to 1000 per cubic centimetre.

The effect is expected to be fully reversible, as the cloud condensation nuclei particles precipitate naturally.

Among these compounds, sulfuric acid has the potential to create new aerosols which act as cloud condensation nuclei.

Supersaturation occurs in the absence of condensation nuclei, for example the flat surface of water.

By creating cloud condensation nuclei, it might be possible to change the albedo of clouds to make them appear whiter.

The extra condensation nuclei created by the spray will change the size distribution of the drops in existing clouds to make them whiter.

Water vapor normally begins to condense on condensation nuclei such as dust, ice, and salt in order to form clouds.

It also tends to expand because of the ash involved in the cloud's formation increase the amount of condensation nuclei.

Aerosol particles are perfect condensation nuclei.

They must increase in mass about 100,000-fold before they're the size of the condensation nuclei that facilitate water droplet formation in clouds.

Supersaturation of more than 1-2% relative to water is rarely seen in the atmosphere, since cloud condensation nuclei are usually present.

If a comet was indeed to blame, the action of its aerosols could also have been by the mechanism of cloud condensation nuclei.

The resulting ions act as condensation nuclei, around which a mist will form (because the mixture is on the point of condensation).

Creation of liquid droplets in saturated vapor is also characterized by nucleation (see Cloud condensation nuclei).

Ice nuclei are very rare compared to that cloud condensation nuclei on which liquid droplets form.

Condensation nuclei make champagne bubbly.
