Cloud physics is the study of the physical processes that govern the formation, evolution, and precipitation of clouds. It examines the microscopic and macroscopic properties of clouds, including the formation of cloud droplets and ice crystals, their growth and interaction, and how these processes affect weather and climate. Key areas of focus in cloud physics include: 1. **Condensation and Nucleation**: Understanding how water vapor condenses to form cloud droplets around small particles called cloud condensation nuclei (CCN).
