A dilemma of the uniqueness of weather and climate model closure parameters

Parameterisation schemes of subgrid-scale physical processes in atmospheric models contain so-called closure parameters. Their precise values are not generally known; thus, they are subject to fine-tuning for achieving optimal model performance. In this article, we show that there is a dilemma conce...
