Description:

A numerical model of cloud growth over a mountain has been modified to simulate the formation and development of hurricane rainband clouds. The first and the third equations of motion, a thermodynamic energy equation, and water conservation equations for cloud substances, rain, and precipitating ice are solved numerically. The model is timedependent, two-dimensional, covering a region 20 km square in the xand z-directions with 200 m equal grid intervals.
