TL;DR: A national experiment named Cloud Aerosol Interaction and Precipitation Enhancement Enhancement EXperiment (CAIPEEX) in two phases, was carried out by the Indian National Experiment for Atmospheric and Environmental Sciences (INSEPSS) as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: The mechanism responsible for high rainfall over the Indian west coast region has been investigated by studying dynamical, thermodynamical and microphysical processes over the region for the monsoon season of 2009 as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors have shown that the number of droplets produced on spontaneous breakup of a drop increases with the size of the drop, and if the drop size is > 6.6 mm, the total number of dropped is more when the drop is uncharged than that when it is charged.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the onset of disintegration and corona in water drops falling at their terminal velocity in a vertical wind tunnel and exposed to horizontal electric fields and observed that the drops elongate in horizontal direction and distort into the shape of a concavo-convex lens with a convex bottom and a sharp edge facing upward.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the frequency distribution of the drop's axis ratio during its oscillations and concluded that the drop size distribution will be wider and thus the rate of drop's growth faster in those regions of cloud where the electric field direction is vertical rather than horizontal.
