Precipitation Electrification

Precipitation Electrification is the atmospheric electrical process by which charged precipitation particles, such as raindrops, ice crystals, or graupel, acquire and separate electric charge during their formation, growth, and fallout within clouds, primarily through collisional and phase-change mechanisms.
