Abstract
AbstractRadar evidence suggesting the production of showers by the coalescence process is presented. On 13 days during the summer of 1955, 48 separate echoes were observed to originate below the −2°C level and 26 of these remained there during the whole life of the shower. These echoes, which were often associated with mixed formations of cumulus and stratocumulus cloud, sometimes extended above the 0°C level at their maximum state of development, but surpassed the −8°C level on only one occasion. Some of the limitations of using radar alone in this type of study are discussed.
