A Cloud Physical Parameterization Method Using Movable Basis Functions: Stochastic Coalescence Parcel Calculations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Numerical simulations of stochastic coalescence in a parcel framework are presented using a series of distribution functions. The equations governing the distribution parameter tendencies are derived using a variational ...
The Survival of Ice Particles Falling from Cirrus Clouds in Subsaturated Air
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A theoretical study has been carried out to determine the relevant microphysical processes which control the survival distance of ice particles failing from cirrus clouds in subsaturated air, and to determine the atmospheric ...
A Numerical Experiment on Stochastic Condensation Theory
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A three-dimensional numerical model is used to study the effect of small-scale supersaturation fluctuations on the evolving droplet distribution in the first 150 m above cloud base. The primary purpose of this research is ...
The Effects of Very Large Drops on Cloud Absorption. Part I: Parcel Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In an effort to bring more realism cloud-radiation calculations, arising-parcel model of cloud microphysics and a 191 waveband model of atmospheric radiation (ATRAD) have been brought to bear on the problem of cloud ...
A Theoretical Study of the Wet Removal of Atmospheric Pollutants. Part I: The Redistribution of Aerosol Particles Captured through Nucleation and Impaction Scavenging by Growing Cloud Drops
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A theoretical model is formulated which allows the processes that control the wet deposition of atmospheric pollutants to be included in cloud dynamic models. The model considers the condensation process and the ...
A Theoretical and Experimental Study of the Internal Circulation in Water Drops Falling at Terminal Velocity in Air
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Four theoretical approaches are presented for quantitatively determining the intensity of the internal circulation and the flow patterns inside and outside liquid water spheres falling at terminal velocity in air. The first ...
