Ice Nucleation Processes

Ice Nucleation Processes is a physical mechanism denoting the initial stage of ice formation in the atmosphere wherein water vapor or supercooled liquid droplets transition to solid ice through heterogeneous or homogeneous pathways mediated by ambient thermodynamic conditions and the presence of ice-nucleating particles.
