but how about snow flake chaser?
that is the title given to one of the authors of a book called,
Wing is a park ranger in Monrovia, California, and works
with Libbrecht as a snowflake chaser, and Libbrecht is a physics professor at
Caltech, where he studies ice crystal growth, so with winter nearly here now is
the time to start hunting for the perfect snowflake, the first thing to know is
how they're made, and in the book, Libbrecht and Wing include a handy guide,
taken from the book the above morphology diagram plots the
main geometries based on temperature and humidity, so you will know what to
look for depending upon your location, and no I am not on commission!
