Objects of myth that inspire both fear and hope, clouds are as much cultural icons as they are subjects of scientific exploration. They shape ecosystems and ocean cycles, provide vital water, and have long been a source of human fascination and inspiration.

Across four destinations and diverse ecosystems—from the Pacific coast of Chile to the cloud cap of Mount Fuji and the “tablecloth” of Africa’s Table Mountain—cloud hunters, meteorologists, scientists, enthusiasts, and indigenous communities help us decode these extraordinary giants. By supplying moisture to the environment, clouds sustain life and make it possible for unique animal and plant species to thrive, even in the driest regions, while creating some of the most spectacular natural scenes on Earth.

The appearance of the mysterious "cloud hat" Kasagumo on the summit of Mount Fuji is the result of an interplay between wind, humidity, and the volcano's shape. It fascinates meteorologists, artists, and tea farmers, and plays an important role in Japanese spirituality and agriculture—a symbol of the fleeting beauty of natural phenomena and the ideal of harmony.

Tablecloth: Life-Giver in South Africa

The summit of Table Mountain in South Africa is often shrouded in mist. The moisture from this cloud, known as "tablecloth," creates a unique microclimate and has given rise to a unique flora. In addition, every drop of water contributes to the water supply of the metropolis of Cape Town. Urbanization, drought, and climate change threaten this delicate balance.
