As is inevitable for a review of an enormously complicated problem, it is highly selective and reflects of the authors' focus. The range of scales involved, and the relevant physics at each scale is described. Particular attention is given to droplet dynamics and growth, and turbulence with and without thermodynamics.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2021-02-20T17:50:54.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "fluid dynamics", "droplet dynamics", "relevant physics", "cloud physics", "enormously complicated problem" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "Springer" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 18, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
