Rate-Limiting Aspects of In-Cloud Scavenging
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An elementary analysis of in-cloud scavenging of aerosol particles is presented which clearly displays the potential for identifying the rate-limiting stage of the overall process. From this model one can infer the ...
A Reevaluation of the Role of Thermophoresis as a Mechanism of In- and Below-Cloud Scavenging
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A comparison is made of the roles played by thermophoresis, Brownian diffusion and diffusiophoresis in the precipitation scavenging of aerosol particles. It is shown, for a certain range of particles sizes, that thermophoresis ...
The Stochastic Growth of a Rain Droplet
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Two approaches are used in this theoretical analysis of the stochastic growth by coalescence of a single, large cloud droplet (rain droplet) as it falls through cloud droplets whose sizes and spatial locations are specified ...
