Scientists discover how water droplets freeze, aiding understanding of cloud formation and climate.

Researchers at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa have uncovered new insights into how water droplets freeze in the air, a key process in the water cycle. Using an advanced cooling chamber, they observed the molecular changes during freezing, which helps understand cloud formation and precipitation. This study is part of a $26 million project aimed at developing sustainable refrigerants to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
