Global Warming Is Changing Cloud Patterns. That Means More Global Warming
At any given time, about two-thirds of Earths surface is covered by clouds. Overall, they make the planet much cooler than it would be without them.

Curiosity Rover Observes Iridescent Clouds on Mars, Offering New Insights
NASA’s Curiosity rover has captured rare iridescent clouds drifting across the Martian sky, observed at high altitudes in twilight conditions. These carbon dioxide ice clouds were seen forming between 60 and 80 kilometres above the surface before evaporating as they descended. Scientists believe their presence hints at unknown cooling mechanisms ...

Satellite Captures Svalbard Bear Island's Rare Cloud Formations and Algal Bloom
A 2023 satellite image captured algal bloom and atmospheric vortices near Bear Island in Norway’s Svalbard archipelago. The algal bloom, stretching 400 kilometres, formed vibrant spirals due to ocean currents. Atmospheric vortices, caused by airflow disruption over Miseryfjellet mountain, mirrored these patterns in the sky. Bear Island’s radioa...

Study Finds Industrial Aerosols May Cause Local Snowfall by Freezing Clouds
A new study led by the University of Tartu has shown that industrial emissions, particularly aerosol particles, can influence local snowfall by triggering ice formation in supercooled clouds. Using satellite and ground-based radar observations, researchers found that factories, including cement plants and power stations, may cause localised snow pl...

Microplastics Could Be Changing Earth’s Climate, Reveals New Study
A Penn State University study published in Environmental Science & Technology: Air reveals that airborne microplastics may influence the climate by affecting cloud structures and weather patterns. The study found that microplastics act as ice nucleating agents in clouds, potentially altering precipitation. Professor Miriam Freedman highlights the n...

As Maharashtra's Sangli Recovers From Flood, Cloud Seeding In Solapur To Induce Rain
Solapur, Satara and Sangli are neighbouring districts in Western Maharashtra but due to geographical and topographical reasons weather patterns are vastly different. While some areas are flooded due to excessive rainfall, others are desperately hoping for more rain and trying to make it happen too by spending Rs 30 crores on cloud seeding.
