She also points to the existence of spiders that eat fish, and says that cloud-dwelling microbes could possibly evolve from the multitude of tiny organisms known as Prochlorococcus that live in...
Apr 23, 2018 · Recently we’ve discovered that many cloud-dwelling microbes create proteins that mimic the structure of ice crystals, allowing ice—and therefore clouds—to form at higher temperatures and lower altitudes.
Oct 21, 2021 · Microbes in the air could be among the victims of climate change, with 15% of airborne species of bacteria predicted to go extinct. The consequences of their loss are currently uncertain, but could cause impacts on crops, diseases, and even the formation of clouds.
Dec 18, 2012 · Thousands of feet above your head, microbes are living—and reproducing—in the tiny drops of water that make up clouds. “This suggests that clouds are quite literally another habitat for life on...

Aug 15, 2018 · An algae-killing virus may be helping seed the skies with clouds. That's the implication of a new study, which finds that—after it dies—one of the ocean's most abundant microorganisms provides the kernel on which water vapor can condense to form droplets, which in turn become clouds.
