Define and describe precipitation

2. What is precipitation?????
Is any form of water that falls to Earth’s
surface. This includes rain, snow, hail, sleet
and many more.

5. The Bergeron process is the
process by which ice crystals attract
water droplets, thereby becoming
large enough to produce rain.
This process relies on two
interesting properties of water:
supercooling and supersaturation

7. Collision-coalescene
Large droplets(>20 μm) formed
when "giant" condensation
nuclei (such as sea salt) are
present, or when hygroscopic
particles exist. Large droplets
fall faster than small droplets,
and add to their size as they fall
by colliding and coalescing with
the small droplets. Because
they get larger, they fall faster,
etc.
