Microphysical, thermodynamical and dynamical properties as observed in the upper part of a small growing warm cumulus cloud

Abstract: A detailed aircraft case study of the upper part of a growing, warm, nonprecipitating cumulus cloud is presented. Measurements were made for 36 min near actual cloud top. The small and shallow cloud observed over the lower Alps in the summer of 1982 was intensively mixing with environmental air during its growth. A contour presentation of measured cloud droplet spectra shows their variability as related to the dynamical and thermodynamical properties. Two distinctly different structures were observed, i.e., pa… Show more
