Abstract: It is suggested that alternation of low-density riming and wet growth processes play a role in hailstone formation. Such alternation of growth processes, which has been called microphysical recycling, is envisioned to ...

Abstract: Within a temperature controlled cold room, using a horizontal wind tunnel and a bank of water sprayers, rime deposits of various densities were grown on rotating cylinders. Experiments were conducted at ambient temperatures ...

Abstract: The accuracy of various techniques for calculating the collection efficiency, accretional density and terminal velocity of graupel particles is examined, using for verification experimental graupel growth data from Pflaum ...
