A Numerical Study of Aerosol Effects on Electrification with Different Intensity Thunderclouds

Numerical simulations are performed to investigate the effect of varying CCN (cloud condensation nuclei) concentration on dynamic, microphysics, electrification, and charge structure in weak, moderate, and severe thunderstorms. The results show that the response of electrification to the increase of...
