The role of the gamma function shape parameter in determining differences between condensation rates in bin and bulk microphysics schemes
The condensation and evaporation rates predicted by bin and bulk microphysics schemes in the same model framework are compared in a statistical way using simulations of non-precipitating shallow cumulus clouds. Despite other fundamental disparities between the bin and bulk condensation parameterizat...
