本文根据雷暴计划的资料，对雷暴单体的各种水源汇和能量源汇进行了定量估算。据发现，大部分的水被带到风暴中的蒸汽形式是用来维持冷的下沉气流内的风暴，并伴随着这种下沉气流的能量抑制是一个主要的能量来源的风暴。根据对水和能量收支的估计，通过雷达测量检验了以下假设：可用的净能量（能源减去能量汇）与对流暴雨的发展量有关。
Abstract A quantitative estimate, based upon data from the Thunderstorm Project, is made of the various water sources and sinks and the energy sources and sinks of an average thunderstorm cell. It is found that a large fraction of the water carried into the storm in vapor form is used to maintain the cold downdraft inside the storm, and that the energy restratification accompanying this downdraft is a major source of energy to the storm. From the estimates of the water and energy budgets, the following hypothesis is tested by means of radar measurements: the net energy available (energy sources minus energy sinks) is related to the amount of development of convective rainstorms.
