The Arctic frequently experiences temperatures that support the formation of mixed-phase clouds that contain supercooled liquid droplets and ice crystals. The composition of such clouds plays a crucial role in the region’s energy balance and climate system. Clouds with more liquid last longer and reflect more sunlight than those with more ice crystals.
