A parameterization scheme for non‐convective condensation including prediction of cloud water content
Abstract
A model for non‐convective condensation processes has been developed. The model allows condensation to begin before relative humidity reaches 100%. The liquid water content of clouds is a prognostic variable of the model. The rate of condensation is a function of relative humidity and moisture flux convergence. The micro‐physical processes involved in the formation of clouds and precipitation are parameterized by assuming that the rate of precipitation formation is a function of the amount of cloud water. Evaporation from falling rain is taken into account. Quantitative tests with the model indicated that it yields reasonable evolution times and water content of clouds, and gives reasonable precipitation amounts.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
