The book examines surface rainfall processes through
cloud-resolving modeling and quantitative analysis of surface
rainfall budget and summarizes modeling and analysis results in
recent seven years. The book shows validation of precipitation
modeling against observations and derives a set of diagnostic
precipitation equations. The book provides detailed discussions of
the applications of precipitation equations to the examination of
effects of sea surface temperature, vertical wind shear, radiation,
and ice clouds on torrential rainfall processes in the tropics and
mid-latitudes, and to the studies of sensitivity of precipitation
modeling to uncertainty of the initial conditions and to the
estimate of precipitation efficiency. The book can be used as a
text book for graduate students and will be beneficial to
researchers and forecasters for precipitation process studies and
operational forecasts.
