Implementation of a two-moment bulk microphysics scheme to the WRF model to investigate aerosol-cloud interaction

[1] A two-moment bulk microphysical scheme has been implemented into the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model to investigate the aerosol-cloud interaction. The microphysical scheme calculates the mass mixing ratios and number concentrations of aerosols and five types of hydrometeors and accounts for various cloud processes including warm and mixed phase microphysics. The representation ...

Effects of Cloud Parameterization on Radiation and Precipitation: A Comparison Between Single-Moment Microphysics and Double-Moment Microphysics

This study compares a single-moment microphysics scheme to a double-moment microphysics scheme using four observed cases of a mesoscale cloud system. Previous studies comparing a single-moment microphysics scheme to a doublemoment microphysics scheme have focused on microphysical processes or overall dynamics, precipitation and morphology of cloud systems. However, they have not focused on how ...

The Wrf-single-moment-microphysics Scheme

In addition to simple and mixed phase schemes in HDC, a more complex scheme with the inclusion of graupel substance being another prognostic variable is developed. The performance of the scheme will be examined against the Purdue Lin A bulk parameterization of cloud particles and precipitation drops that is primarily based on the works of Lin et al. (1983) and Rutledge and Hobbs (1983) has been...
