| Title: | The effect of liquid water on thunderstorm charging / C.P.R. Saunders, W.D. Keith, R.P. Mitzeva. |
| Author(s): | Saunders, C. P. R. Keith, W. D. Mitzeva, R. P. |
| Date: | 1991. |
| In: | Journal of Geophysical Research. (1991.), Vol. 96(D6) (1991) |
| Abstract: | Previous laboratory studies showed that thunderstorm charging caused by interactions of ice crystals and graupel pellets is affected in sign and magnitude by temperature and cloud liquid water content; presence of water droplets is requirement for substantial charge transfer. Relationships showing dependence of charge transfer on ice-crystal size and velocity have been reported previously, and, now, effect of liquid water content on charge transfer is investigated by means of experiments performed at one value of velocity with ice crystals in limited size range but various values of liquid water content for both positive and negative charging. |
