GLAZE ICE 雨凇

When falling precipitation hits a surface that's below freezing, it can instantly form what's known as "glaze ice," a buildup of smooth, clear, and transparent ice. It can be seen coating tree branches and plants following an ice storm.

当雨点落在温度在冰点以下的表面时，会立即形成所谓的“雨凇”，即光滑、透明的冰层。雨雪过后，可见雨凇覆盖在树枝和植物上。

HARD RIME 硬雾淞

As the weather cools, freezing fogs can occur, and when that fog is combined with wind, hard rime can form on windward (wind-facing) surfaces. "Rime" literally means "hoar frost," and while slightly different on a meteorological level, "soft rime" is very similar to a thick hoarfrost. Hard rime, on the other hand, is much thicker and harder, and consists of fairly dense pellets of irregular ice crystals glommed together.

随着天气变冷，可能会出现冻雾，当冻雾与风结合时，物体迎风面会形成硬雾凇（hard rime）。Rime字面意思是“白霜”，软雾凇与厚厚的白霜非常相似，但在气象层面上略有不同。此外，硬雾凇要更厚更硬，由高密度的不规则冰晶团聚合在一起形成。
