Abstract: AbstractThe entrainment?mixing process leads to formation of a cloud?environment interface zone, consisting of the cloud dilution zone, where the liquid water content decreases as the distance from the cloud interior ...

Abstract: AbstractThe problem of a complex entrainment?mixing process is analyzed by solving a diffusion?evaporation equation for an open region in the vicinity of the cloud?dry air interface. Upon normalization the problem is reduced ...

Abstract: new mechanism has been developed for size distribution broadening toward large droplet sizes. This mechanism may explain the rapid formation of large cloud droplets, which may subsequently trigger precipitation formation ...
