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 investigating large non-linear numerical systems. Model codes are available online at www.cambridge.org/9780521883382. Written for researchers and advanced students of cloud and precipitation microphysics, this book is also a valuable reference for all atmospheric scientists involved in models of numerical weather prediction.Cloud & Precipitation MicrophysicsPrecipitation (Meteorology)MeasurementCloud forecastingPrecipitation forecastingPrecipitation (Meteorology)Measurement.Cloud forecasting.Precipitation forecasting.551.57Straka Jerry M.1057052UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910454525503321Cloud and precipitation microphysics2491897UNINA
