Melting Layer Processes

Melting Layer Processes is a meteorological framework that characterizes the transformation of hydrometeors from solid to liquid phase within the melting layer, distinguished by the detailed modeling of microphysical, thermal, and dynamical interactions governing precipitation phase transitions in the vicinity of the 0°C isotherm.
