The recipe for a cloud is simple: just water molecules and tiny hygroscopic, meaning they attract water, particles to cling to. On their own, water molecules are far too small to combine into droplets ...

Caroline Muller looks at clouds differently than most people. Where others may see puffy marshmallows, wispy cotton candy or thunderous gray objects storming overhead, Muller sees fluids flowing ...

Atmospheric scientists and engineers at Brookhaven National Laboratory have successfully created what they're calling a "cloud in a box," a programmable atmosphere designed to help researchers unlock ...

No one can control the weather, but certain clouds can be deliberately triggered to release rain or snow. The process, known as cloud seeding, typically involves dispersing small silver iodide ...
