Figure 1-10 shows dependence (1.69) for two critical radii
Figure 1-10. Volume fraction of rain that submerges into the ocean as function of rainrate for
critical radii of r c = 0.4 mm and r c = 0.75 mm.
1.5.3 Volume source of freshwater due to rain
Following
et al. (1997), we assume that the volume of a drop
decays exponentially with depth, which results in the following parametric
dependence:
