Abstract: Well developed thunderstorms were observed by CAPPI-equipped radar to remain upright even in the presence of severe wind shear. Instead of being strongly bent by the shear, parts of the storm appeared to be carried off by ...

Abstract: A rigorous study was made of the temperature profile in spherical and homogeneous hailstones falling through clear air. It is found that a stone 1 cm in radius is liable to be a dozen degrees Celsuis colder than the ambient ...

Abstract: Coalescence of raindrops and cloud droplets has been studied in the laboratory by observing the growth of water drops when falling through a three-meter column of cloud. The increase in mass of the drop is expressed in ...

Abstract: An equation for the rate of rainfall at a given range from the radar is derived. This is expressed in terms of the power level of the received signal (corrected for attenuation by intervening cloud and atmospheric gases) ...

Abstract: Numerical methods are used to study the changes in the distribution of raindrops with size and in the radar echo, as rain falls. Changes brought about by collisions among the drops, by accretion of cloud, and by evaporation ...
