microice
Microice refers to extremely small ice crystals, typically on the order of micrometers in size. These tiny ice particles can form under a variety of conditions, often in supercooled water or water vapor. Their formation is influenced by factors such as temperature, pressure, and the presence of nucleation sites.
In atmospheric science, microice is a significant component of clouds, particularly in the colder regions of
Beyond the atmosphere, microice can also be found in other environments. For example, it can form in
