  "id": "MLC-T-MET-006586",
  "term": "Interfacial tension",
  "field": "Meteorology and atmospheric science",
  "definition": "The force per unit length existing at the boundary between two immiscible fluids, such as air and water, or between a liquid and a solid. This tension arises from the imbalance of intermolecular forces at the interface. In atmospheric science, it influences the formation and stability of cloud droplets and ice crystals.",
