Abstract
A major part of this book discusses the use of stochastic models for atmospheric convection, namely through the use of a stochastic model for CIN and a stochastic multicloud model which pertains to tracking the statistics of clouds of various types. These models rely on the theory of stochastic processes and Markov chains in particular. Here, we provide a brief introduction to this topic to help the reader better appreciate and comprehend the cloud models. The expert reader can skip this chapter. It is intended to readers with no or rather very little background in probability theory and stochastic processes. Nonetheless, we assume that the reader is familiar with the basic notions of probability distributions and random variables.
