Ocean cloud-seeding particles may be far more common than models assume

Original: Marine organic particles that seed ocean clouds may be three times more abundant than climate models assume

Marine organic particles that help seed ocean clouds may be three times more abundant than current climate models assume, according to new research. The finding suggests the ocean contributes more to cloud formation than recognized, which could affect how scientists project climate warming and the role of clouds in reflecting sunlight.

Why now: New research suggests climate models may be underestimating a key natural process affecting cloud formation and climate projections.
