## Abstract Aircraft observations of droplets greater than 100 ΞΌ diameter in 20 low layer clouds indicate that these drops can occur in concentrations of approximately 0Β·1 per litre to 10 per litre in clouds of 1,000 ft (300 m) to 7,000 ft (2,100 m) thickness. These observations are presented toget

## Abstract Calculations have been made of the rate at which droplets originating on salt nuclei of given mass grow by both condensation and coalescence with smaller droplets in layer clouds of given uniform updraught, mean temperature, supersaturation and liquidβwater content; also of the rate at
## Abstract A description is given of observations made in southβeast Australia of medium and heavy rain falling from clouds which were everywhere warmer than 0Β°C. Detailed observations were made visually from aircraft and these were supplemented by measurements of the radar echo intensities and dr
## Abstract Observations from aircraft of the Meteorological Research Flight flying near stratocumulus clouds showed steep inversions and hydrolapses directly above the tops of the clouds. Turbulence was encountered below and in the clouds and up to 300 ft above the cloud top. Above this level no t
