Aerosol size-dependent below-cloud scavenging by rain and snow in the ECHAM5-HAM

Wet deposition processes are highly efficient in the removal of aerosols from the atmosphere, and thus strongly influence global aerosol concentrations, and clouds, and their respective radiative forcings. In this study, physically detailed size-dependent below-cloud scavenging parameterizations for...
