Numerical Modeling of Hailstorms and Hailstone Growth. Part III: Simulation of an Alberta Hailstorm—Natural and Seeded Cases
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper reports on simulations of a multicellular hailstorm case observed during the 1983 Alberta Hail Project. The field operations on that day concentrated on two successive feeder cells which were subjected to ...
Numerical Modeling of Hailstorms and Hailstone Growth. Part II: The Role of Low-Density Riming Growth in Hag Production
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The past several years have seen a renewed interest in the importance of low-density riming growth to the development of hailstones. This paper reports on the results of a study that incorporates the physical factors ...
Bulk Parameterization of the Snow Field in a Cloud Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A two-dimensional, time-dependent cloud model has been used to simulate a moderate intensity thunderstorm for the High Plains region. Six forms of water substance (water vapor, cloud water, cloud ice, rain, snow and hail, ...
A Numerical Case Study of Convection Initiation along Colliding Convergence Boundaries in Northeast Colorado
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A numerical cloud model has been used to simulate convective storm development on 17 July 1987 in northeast Colorado. The study involves the simulation of convergence along atmospheric boundaries and the subsequent development ...
Some Surprising Results from Simulated Seeding of Stratiform-Type Clouds
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Studies have been conducted to determine the cloud seeding potential of stratiform type clouds using a two-dimensional, time-dependent cloud model. An atmospheric sounding from Villanubla, Spain, in February 1980, was used ...
A Preliminary Numerical Study into the Effects of Coal Development on Cloud and Precipitation Processes in the Northern Great Plains
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Numerical simulations are conducted to determine the possible effects of air pollution from coal-fired power plants on cloud and precipitation processes in the northern Great Plains. This study can only be considered as ...
Numerical Simulation of Ice-Phase Convective Cloud Seeding
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A two-dimensional time-dependent cloud model which covers a region 19.2 km ? 19.2 km in the x and z directions with 200 m grid intervals, has been used to simulate silver iodide (AgI) seeding effects on strong convective ...
Numerical Simulation of Dry Ice Cloud Seeding Experiments
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The application of a two-dimensional, time-dependent cloud model to describe the effects of dry ice cloud seeding is demonstrated. A conservation equation and associated auxiliary equations for the mixing ratio of dry ice ...
A Modeling Study on the Early Electrical Development of Tropical Convection: Continental and Oceanic (Monsoon) Storms
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Numerical modeling studies of continental tropical and maritime tropical convection were conducted using the two-dimensional, nonhydrostatic, cloud electrification model developed at the South Dakota School of Mines and ...
The 1 August 1981 MOPE Storm: Observations and Modeling Results
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Observations made by the T-28 armored research aircraft, radar, and other data sources were used to study an eastern Moutana hailstorm that developed on 1 August 1981 during the Cooperative Convective Precipitation Experiment ...
