| الوصف: | Ubiquitous, yet elusive to a complete understanding: Tiny, warm clouds with faint visual signatures play a critical role in Earth's energy balance. These "twilight clouds", as they are sometimes called, form under weak updraft conditions. Their constituent particles exist in a precarious state, teetering between hazy wisps and activated droplets. This delicate thermodynamic balance creates a limited reservoir of supersaturation, which activated droplets readily consume. Our research presents a novel approach, solving coupled equations for particle growth (K\"ohler's equation) and supersaturation change. This reveals previously unconsidered activation states for these clouds. Additionally, the analysis predicts conditions where particles can exhibit self-sustained oscillations between haze and activated droplet states. |
