Supersaturation can exist because nucleating new ice crystals is a slow process, although natural cirrus clouds show that spontaneous nucleation does happen.

Accretionary lapilli are formed in an eruption column or cloud by moisture or electrostatic forces, with the volcanic ash nucleating on some object and then accreting to it in layers before the accretionary lapillus falls from the cloud.

But, what makes this research more complicated is that most known ice-nucleating bacteria are plant pathogens.

I am not using the word “bubble” metaphorically; amazingly enough the physics of this tunneling event is exactly analogous to the physics of bubbles nucleating when you boil hot water on the stove.

Crocidolite fiber veins formed, presumably with magnetite particles acting as nucleating agents.

It seems, though, that most freeze tolerant insects produce ice nucleating proteins as part of their strategy for survival.
