Here are some key words/phrases to get your googling started: – Lifting Condensation Level (LCL): The altitude at which the water vapor in rising air begins to condense – Adiabatic Cooling: describes the process by which an air blob cools as it rises (and as air pressure drops) – Latent heat: the energy absorbed by water molecules during evaporation and released during condensation – Energy of Vaporization: The amount of energy it takes for a liquid to evaporate – Ideal Gas Law: The rule about how a volume of gas at a constant temperature and pressure always has the same number of molecules – Supercell: A really big thunderstorm. Like, the biggest. ________________________ References: Abraham. F.F. (1974) Homogeneous Nucleation Theory: The Pretransition Theory of Vapor Condensation.
