Rain scavenging studies. Progress report No. 10

Studies conducted over the last few years on the observations and measurements made in the field on 1 June 1970 are assembled and interpreted in terms of the modelling of convective shower systems and their scavenging patterns. The modelling of cloud microphysics in relation to precipitation generation and scavenging as well as convective system dynamics is also discussed. It is suggested that parameterizations of the microphysical processes and the fine-scale dynamics will probably have to be tested for adequacy against nearly full scale computations in three dimensions using time-dependent equations with variable boundary conditions. Steps toward this long term objective are planned
