• Large-Eddy Simulations of Trade Wind Cumuli: Investigation of Aerosol Indirect Effects (2006, background): “Regardless of whether one espouses the entrainment model of shedding thermals proposed by Blyth et al. (1988) and supported by the analysis of Kollias et al. (2001) or Zhao and Austin (2005), or the description of entrainment based on plume models, entrainment rates are inversely proportional to…”
• Deriving Mixed-Phase Cloud Properties from Doppler Radar Spectra (2004, background): “The terminal fall velocity of cloud liquid droplets is typically negligible compared to vertical air motions; the Stokes terminal fall velocity for a 10-mm-radius liquid drop is less than 1 cm s 21. Thus, cloud droplets can be considered as tracers for the air motion (e.g., Gossard et al. 1997; Babb”
