Understanding droplet formation in pure water in a controlled lab setting is challenging enough, but in the atmosphere, droplets form in the presence of many other substances. Some of them, like nitrogen, oxygen and argon, do not interact much with water and are easy to account for. The complications arise from surface-active species, namely substances that prefer to stay on the surface of the droplet. Saiba mais...
