title = "Turbulence",
abstract = "This chapter addresses the small-scale, random motions (i.e., turbulence) in clouds. Because the smallest scales of motion in clouds are many orders of magnitude smaller than the characteristic length scale of clouds, then the governing equations must be filtered (i.e., averaged) to make simulation possible. The Reynolds averaging approach is examined first, and several closure models for this system are described. Then the fundamental concepts of large eddy simulation are reviewed. Subgrid condensation is also discussed, including an evaluation of some simple models using observational data.",
