Liquid water droplets. Credit: Luis Nunes Alberto / / CC BY-SA 3.0 A new study has found that certain fungi can trigger water to freeze, offering fresh insight into how microscopic life influences the atmosphere. Researchers from Virginia Tech and international institutions identified fungal proteins that act as ice nucleators. These substances help water freeze more easily. The findings were published in Science Advances. Scientists explained that pure water can remain liquid even below freezing. However, when ice nucleators are present, water molecules arrange into ice crystals more quickly. This...
