A Three-Dimensional Simulation of Supercell Convective Storm

Figure 2

A three-dimensional depictions of convective storm life cycle, expressed through their mixing ratios in (g kg^-1), viewed from the southeast (SE), at 15-minute time intervals starting at 15 minutes. Plots with a corresponding yellow, blue, green, and red color denote the total condensate mixing ratios of cloud water, rainwater, snow, and hail, respectively. The model was run with a spatial resolution of (1×1×0.5) km³ and a temporal resolution of 10 s.
