Back to 1.5 km model
Animations of 25 Aug 2012 from the 200-m model
- 200-m model
- 3-h period
- Liquid, ice and rain converted approximately to an extinction
coefficient
- Shadowing implemented by computing a unit vector pointing along
the spatial gradient of the extinction, then shading according to
the angle between this vector and the direction to the sun
- Rain rate shown below on a log scale between 0.01 and 10 mm/h
Animation 1: Ice and rain only
- Vertical scale stretched by factor 3.33
- Liquid removed completely
- 280x200 km region
Animation 2: Zoom into an storm over the Severn estuary
- Aspect ratio 1:1
- 50x50 km region
- Plotted region follows storms
- Liquid extinction coefficient reduced by a factor of 10
Animation 3: Zoom into an storm over Wiltshire
- Aspect ratio 1:1
- 50x50 km region
- Plotted region follows storms
- Liquid extinction coefficient reduced by a factor of 10
