An investigation on super- and sub-terminal drops in two different rain categories and climate regimes

HIGHLIGHTS

SUMMARY

    Even then, the presence of drops with velocity outside the expected terminal velocity range has been reported by several works: drops with a fall velocity lower than 70% of their terminal velocity are labelled as sub-terminal, whereas drops falling at larger than 130% of the terminal velocity are considered super-terminal. In natural rain, very large raindrops, grown by coalescence, break-up into smaller drops as a result of their unstable nature (hydrodynamical break-up) or, more frequently, after collisions with smaller drops (collisional break-up). To be specific, the quantification of non . . .
