Evaluation of the atmospheric transport in a GCM using radon measurements: sensitivity to cumulus convection parameterization

The radioactive species radon (<sup>222</sup>Rn) has long been used as a test tracer for the numerical simulation of large scale transport processes. In this study, radon transport experiments are carried out using an atmospheric GCM with a finite-difference dynamical cor...
