Abstract: The concentration of sulfate in precipitation is predicted to be directly proportional to the sulfate concentration of the air ingested into the cloud and inversely proportional to cloud water concentration. In addition, ...

Abstract: Washout ratios for sulfate were computed from simultaneous measurements of sulfate in precipitation and in the air below cloud base. Stratification of the data according to predominant mode of precipitation growth (growth ...

Abstract: Two case studies are used to examine the relationship of the sulfate concentration in surface precipitation to the microphysical characteristics of the precipitating cloud systems. The data from one case study support the ...
