Abstract: Sferic pulse-train amplitudes and arrival times were used to locate lightning flashes and correlate cloud-to-ground (C?G) lightning with radar reflectivity in two typical Oklahoma storm systems. One system was a squall ...

Abstract: A theoretical and experimental study of the physical behavior of freely falling waterdrops is carried out. The influence of ventilation and environment upon the evaporation and equilibrium temperature is formulated in ...

Abstract: The terminal velocities for distilled water droplets falling through stagnant air are accurately determined. More than 1500 droplets of mass from 0.2 to 100,000 micrograms, embracing droplets so small that Stokes' law is ...

Abstract: The size and the free electric charge of more than 6000 individual natural cloud droplets have been measured. The measurements were made at a mountain laboratory in southeastern United States in strato-cumulus clouds and ...

Abstract: Water droplets initially 2 µ in radius were held stationary for observation in an upward streaming cloud and were found to grow by accretion. The rate of increase in the radius of individual droplets was measured from 4 ...

Abstract: Determinations were made of the rate of growth of a drop of water supported by an upward flow of a cloud whose free water content and droplet-radius distribution were measured. The water content was varied through a range ...
