On a cold winter day in Iceland, the sky turned pastel coloured. Polar stratospheric clouds in Iceland, form in the winter stratosphere. 🌈 These iridescent clouds result from ice crystals refracting sunlight, creating stunning colors. Their occurrence is linked to cold temperatures and high altitudes, making Iceland’s winter skies a canvas for this natural spectacle. If you’re in Iceland this winter, don’t forget to look up! 🥹🫶🏼❤️ #Iceland #polarstratosphericclouds | Ása Steinars

Polar Stratospheric Clouds over Iceland — Nature’s Rarest Canvas 🌈☁️ High above the frozen world, at altitudes of 15–25 kilometers, the sky sometimes weaves one of its most elusive masterpieces: polar stratospheric clouds, also known as nacreous clouds or “mother-of-pearl” clouds. Unlike ordinary clouds that form in the lower atmosphere, these shimmering veils appear only in the extreme cold of the stratosphere — often colder than –78°C (–108°F). Their brilliant colors come from tiny ice crysta

Polar stratospheric clouds (PSCs), also called nacreous clouds, form high in the polar stratosphere during winter, typically between 15 and 25 kilometers in altitude. They develop in extremely cold conditions—around −78°C or lower. Unlike regular clouds, PSCs consist of ice crystals and supercooled droplets of nitric acid and water. These clouds are significant in ozone layer depletion, as they provide a surface for chemical reactions that release chlorine and bromine compounds, which break down

Thin clouds of acid droplets and ice crystals. Up to 25 km above Davis research station. Around 90⁰C below zero. And a powerful green laser pulsing into the dark winter night.
