Description for Cloud and Precipitation Microphysics: Principles and Parameterizations
Paperback. This book provides a background to the fundamental principles of parameterization physics for accurate numerical predictions of cloud and precipitation. Num Pages: 408 pages, black & white illustrations. BIC Classification: RBP. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 257 x 179 x 29. Weight in Grams: 716.
This book focuses specifically on bin and bulk parameterizations for the prediction of cloud and precipitation at various scales - the cloud scale, mesoscale, synoptic scale, and the global climate scale. It provides a background to the fundamental principles of parameterization physics, including processes involved in the production of clouds, ice particles, liquid water, snow aggregate, graupel and hail. It presents full derivations of the parameterizations, allowing readers to build parameterization packages, with varying levels of complexity based on information in the book. Architectures for a range of dynamical models are given, in which parameterizations form a significant tool for ... Read more
