A two-dimensional nonstationary microphysical model of a three-phase convective cloud and estimation of the effects of seeding by a crystallizing reagent

Microphysical processes are calculated from both the kinetic equations for the size distributions of droplets and crystals and the supersaturation equations. The convective dynamics is calculated from the equations of deep convection for a vortex and stream function. The development of convective clouds and precipitation is investigated under natural conditions and with the seeding by a crystallizing reagent. The effects of the dynamic and static seeding on the changes in the microstructure and phase state of a cloud, flow circulation and precipitation regime are assessed. -from English summary
