    CLOUD experiments show that trees can make their own clouds.

    CLOUD experiments show that trees can make their own clouds. Atmospheric aerosols are tiny solid or liquid droplets suspended in the air. They are all around us, emitted from a variety of natural and anthropogenic sources. Although aerosol particles are too small to be seen with the human eye, they have a significant impact on

    CLOUD experiment makes its own clouds to study

    CLOUD experiment makes its own clouds to study The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) recognizes aerosols (small nanometer to micrometer sized particles suspended in air) as the single biggest source of uncertainty in human-driven climate change. Atmospheric aerosol particles are important as they can cool the climate by i) reflecting sunlight and ii) by
