Structure of waterHow is snow formed?
Crystal formation, faceting and branchingAre all crystals different?
Changes in snow over time
The structure of ice and ice crystals
Hexagonal structure of ice at the molecularlevel leads to hexagonal crystals
Why do we get different snowflake shapes?
Faceting: Filling in the crystal faces
Branching: Diffusion of vapor feeds points faster
More branching at higher water vapor pressure
