Understanding Cloud Droplet Spectral Dispersion Effect Using Empirical and Semi‐Analytical Parameterizations in NCAR CAM5.3
Abstract Five parameterizations of cloud droplet spectral shape are implemented in a global climate model to investigate the dispersion effect and aerosol indirect effect (AIE). We design a series of experiments by modifying the microphysical cloud scheme of NCAR CAM5.3 (National Center for Atmosphe...
