Simulation of the evolution of the latent heat processes in a mesoscale convective system accompanied by heavy rainfall over the Guangzhou region of South China

A cloud-scale WRF simulation was used to investigate the cloud microphysical processes and three-dimensional structure of latent heat budgets in different stages of a mesoscale convective system (MCS) accompanied by heavy rain that occurred in the Guangzhou region of South China. The results enable...
