← ScienceWhich outcome results when seeding promotes ice nucleation during atmospheric aerosol phase transition?
A)Decreased cloud albedo globally
B)Accelerated homogeneous ice formation
C)Enhanced heterogeneous ice formation✓
D)Reduced cirrus cloud lifetime
💡 Explanation
Seeding fosters increased heterogeneous ice formation because it provides nucleation sites with lower energy barriers, therefore ice crystals form at higher temperatures, rather than relying on homogeneous nucleation at much colder temperatures.
