Researchers at the University of Leeds in the UK have discovered that tiny marine plants directly influence the formation of clouds, and if those clouds will have an insulating effect on the atmosphere or if […]

The method, which will be tested by Xavier Mayali, Jennifer Pett-Ridge, both from LLNL, and a team […]
