Hole-Punch and Canal Clouds over Coast with Supercooled Water Droplets

This image shows hole-punch and canal clouds off the coast of Florida, taken by NASA's Terra satellite on December 12, 2014. Hole-punch and canal clouds are distinctive gaps in altocumulus clouds caused by aircraft disrupting supercooled water droplets, resulting in adiabatic cooling and subsequent ice crystal formation. This image can be used to illustrate unique atmospheric phenomena, educational content on weather and climate, or scientific presentations related to cloud formations and airplanes' environmental impact.
