The collision-coalescence process of raindrop formation predominates in clouds at high latitudes.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The collision-coalescence process is more common in warm clouds (tropics and mid-latitudes) where the temperatures are above freezing and there is a lot of water vapor available. In high latitudes, where temperatures are colder, the Bergeron-Findeisen process (ice-crystal process) is more common for raindrop formation.
