## Abstract The paper describes a relatively simple model of a non‐precipitating cumulus cloud that grows by the ascent of successive spherical thermals through the residues of their predecessors, mixing with the surroundings being determined by the relative velocity and the radius of the thermal.

## Abstract The paper describes calculations of the development of droplet‐size spectra in cumulus clouds under the combined effects of condensation and coalescence. It is demonstrated that the concentration of condensation nuclei is a more important factor in controlling the onset of precipitation

## Abstract The growth of droplets by condensation upon a spectrum of salt nuclei is followed as they are carried up in a small cumulus which mixes and exchanges heat, momentum and water vapour with its surroundings.

## Abstract The model of the development of the droplet spectrum in cumulus clouds described by Mason and Jonas (1974) has been used to calculate the spectrum in penetrating downdraughts and the changes which occur when a region of dry air resulting from such a downdraught is subsequently forced to
