A Relationship Between Hailstone Concentration and Size
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Hailstone size distributions have been determined from 41 time-resolved hailstone samples collected at the ground from seven storms that occurred in Alberta in the summer of 1980. Most size distributions were found to quite ...
A Comparison of AgI and CO2 Seeding Effects in Alberta Cumulus Clouds
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Three convective clouds extending above a stratocumulus layer were identified as being seedable on one day and were then seeded in a random sequence with CO2 pellets, a placebo and droppable AgI flares. The radar and ...
The Sampling Variations of Hailstone Size Distributions
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The use of a shifted gamma size distribution for hailstone samples is proposed. This is shown to provide a better fit than the usual exponential form, using time-resolved Alberta data. It is also concluded that there is a ...
