Oct 31, 2013

Professor Dan Cziczo discusses the science of clouds, how particles (aerosols) in the atmosphere trigger cloud formation, and what the presence of particular aerosols recently discovered suggest for a better understanding of climate change. This video includes footage from the Cziczo Lab in which Dr. Cziczo demonstrates how aerosols trigger cloud formation, and researchers in the lab explain how particles are collected and analyzed.
