The Important Role of Microorganisms in the Cloud Formation Process

‍

Microorganisms, such as bacteria and fungi, actually have a role which is often underestimated when we talk about natural processes that affect the weather in everyday life. Well, one of them is the-process of cloud formation in the earth's atmosphere. If we look deeper, this-process is actually very interesting for us to know together. This involves the interaction of biological particles with water vapor and certain environmental conditions.

‍

As we all know, clouds are formed from water vapor in the atmosphere which starts from cooling to reaching the dew point, which then condenses and becomes water droplets or ice crystals. However, for this-process to occur, condensation nuclei are needed. Condensation nuclei are small particles that function as areas where water vapor initially collects. Well, until now, many of us thought the dust, sea salt, or pollutants were the only condensation nuclei. If it turns out that the latest research shows the microorganisms can also act as very effective condensation nuclei.

‍

There are several types of bacteria, such as pseudomonas syringae which have special proteins on their surfaces which may absorb water and form ice at higher temperatures than other non-biological particles. At certain altitudes in the atmosphere, bacteria could act as important agents in cloud formation. These bacteria can rise to the clouds and trigger the formation of water droplets when the wind carries them from the ground to the air.

In addition to bacteria, there are also fungal spores which play a role in the process of cloud formation. Strong and resistant to ultraviolet radiation and extreme conditions, that is the basic structure of fungal spores. Fungal spores may survive for days when carried by the wind, and some types even have hydraulic or waterproof properties, so the water vapor condenses more easily in the surrounding area.

‍

This-event certainly affects the phenomenon of cloud formation. However, it can also have an impact on increasing rainfall patterns. Previous research has said that microorganisms in the cloud-making process might affect the distribution of rainfall in various areas. For example, if the quantity of bacteria or fungal spores in the atmosphere increases, then it may cause high rainfall in some areas.

‍

Well, there is something interesting about this-event. What is it? It turns out that microorganisms which fall with raindrops can affect the local ecosystem. These fungal spores might cause biodiversity in the soil, help form nutrient cycles and even affect plant growth.

‍

So, microorganisms are not just super tiny creatures which live in soil or water but also play an important role in the process of the global climate system. Of course, we cannot ignore their role. This is what often happens in our life processes. And this-phenomenon brings a new paradigm regarding the relationship between microscopic life and larger natural phenomena. Although research on this-phenomenon is still in the-process of development, it is clear that microorganisms have a more significant impact on our lives than we previously imagined.
