Surface tension of water is «ratcheted up» (in multimers of H2O [this is the phase change], the exact mechanism for which I prefer to keep secret
at the moment) and it is the ensuing structure (pervection) that explains the missing lubrication (Lorenz) in our atmospheric circulation.
It is known that
surface tension decreases with decreasing temperature, the rate of decrease is different in different sources, but it is known that
at low temperatures (can be around Tlim of -70 to -100 C), s becomes very low, even for pure water without surfactants, and may become even negative in some extrapolations to the low T, which prevents calculations
at these T.
