Description: Data obtained in airborne studies of a small thundercloud have been examined in terms of the noninductive mechanism. Crude calculations are consistent with the observation that only a few percent of ice hydrometeors carry detectable charges. Observed particle charges are reproduced reasonably well. The results suggest that this mechanism can explain the observed electrical development, and predict that most of the charge in thunderstorms is carried on particles greater than about 0.2 mm in size.
