Modeling of rainfall enhancement by seeding tropical convective clouds
Convective clouds are characterized by strong updrafts, enhanced transport of heat and moisture in the upper layers and rainfall processes which are activated in very limited time interval and space and with a variable intensities. The cloud seeding for rain enhancment of such clouds is a big challenge and common practice in many areas over the world for more than 50 years. There is a strong sc...
متن کاملConvective Clouds
A new technique for rendering convective clouds is suggested. The technique uses two lattice-Boltzmann (LB) models, one for generating the spatial and temporal distribution of water density and the other for photon transport, that is, lighting the water density with correct anisotropic scattering. The common LB structure is easily mapped to parallel execution environments such as a GPU or multi...
متن کاملParameterization of Convective Clouds, Mesoscale Convective Systems, and Convective-Generated Clouds
This presentation is a summary of research progress supported under the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) project entitled "Parameterization of Convective Clouds, Mesoscale Convective Systems, and Con'o'ective-Generated Clouds." The approach used in this research is to perform explicit simulations of convective clouds and mesoscale convective systems for well-documented observed cases. Th...
متن کاملObservations of shallow convective clouds generated by solar heating of dark smoke plumes
The SEVIRI instrument on the Meteosat Second Generation satellite with both fine spatial and temporal resolution allows to detect and follow the dynamics of fast developing meteorological events like spreading smoke plumes and the lifecycles of convective clouds. Smoke plumes have the ability to change the atmospheric heat content due to absorption and reduced reflection of solar radiation. By ...
