It is based on substantial research work in atmospheric science carried out over twenty years. Atmospheric flows exhibit self similar fractal fluctuations, a signature of long-range correlations on all space-time scales. Realistic simulation and prediction of atmospheric flows requires the incorporation of the physics of observed fractal fluctuation characteristics in traditional meteorological theory. A general systems theory model for fractal space-time fluctuations in turbulent atmospheric flows is presented and applied to the formation of rain in warm clouds. This model gives scale-free universal governing equations for cloud growth processes. The model predicted cloud parameters are in agreement with reported observations, in particular, the cloud drop-size distribution. Rain formation can occur in warm clouds within 30 minutes as observed in practice under favourable conditions of moisture supply in the environment. Traditional cloud physical concepts for rain development requires over an hour for a full-sized raindrop to form. The book provides background reading for postgraduate students of Meteorology, Atmospheric Sciences/Physics, Environmental Sciences, and scientists working in the field of the topic of the book as well as the multidisciplinary field of Nonlinear Dynamics and Chaos. 000725640 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed February 19, 2015). 000725640 650_0 $$aCloud physics. 000725640 650_0 $$aRain and rainfall. 000725640 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9783319132686 000725640 830_0 $$aSpringerBriefs in meteorology. 000725640 852__ $$bebk 000725640 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-13269-3$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000725640 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:725640$$pGLOBAL_SET 000725640 980__ $$aEBOOK 000725640 980__ $$aBIB 000725640 982__ $$aEbook 000725640 983__ $$aOnline 000725640 994__ $$a92$$bISE
