coalescence"In cloud physics, the merging of two water drops into a single larger drop after collision. Coalescence between colliding drops is affected by the impact energy, which tends to increase with the higher fall velocities of larger drops.
Coalescence The merging of cloud droplets into a single larger droplet.
Cold fog See Supercooled cloud.
Cold front The leading edge of a cold air mass.
COALESCENCE The merging of two water drops into a single larger drop.
COLD A condition marked by low or decidedly subnormal temperature. The lack of heat. Related term: Dave's Dictionary ...
Coalescence The process by which water droplets in a cloud collide and come together to form raindrops.
coalescence- process by which tiny water droplets in a cloud merge to form raindrops that eventually precipitate.
condensation- formation of liquid water from vapor, either around a small particle or on a solid surface. See dew point, evaporation.
Collision-coalescence process The growth of cloud droplets into raindrops within warm clouds; droplets merge upon impact.
Coffision-Coalescence Process - A theory of raindrop formation in warm clouds (above 0°C) in which large cloud droplets ('giants') confide and join together with smaller droplets to form a raindrop.
Collision and coalescence - Process important in precipitation formation; involves the colliding of cloud drops or raindrops and the "sticking-together" of them.
common salt or fine water droplets, may also be used to encourage coalescence.

Coalescence Process: The process by which water droplts falling collied (Coalescence) and grow larger.
Col: A neutral area between two high pressure systems or two low pressure systems.
Cold Air: Moves towards warm air.
The process begins as supercooled raindrops grow by collision and coalescence, and since the temperature throughout the cloud is warmer than about -10C, the cloud is generally free of ice crystals.
When two colliding water droplets form a new larger droplet, this agglomeration process is called "coalescence.
The Bergeron process competes with growth and coalescence of droplets in clouds above 0°C, which can create drizzle in nimbostratus, and rain in tropical convective storms.
Coalescence Formation of a single water drop by the union of two or more colliding drops. Cockeyed bob A colloquial term in western Australia for a squall, associated with thunder, on the northwest coast in summer.
