Cloud and precipitation microphysics : principles and parameterizations /

Mostrar otras versiones (1)

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 p...
