Influence of low-level blocking and turbulence on the microphysics of a mixed-phase cloud in an inner-Alpine valley

<p>Previous studies that investigated orographic precipitation have primarily focused on isolated mountain barriers. Here we investigate the influence of low-level blocking and shear-induced turbulence on the cloud microphysics and precipitation formation in a complex inner-Alpine valley. The...
