Uncertainty from the choice of microphysics scheme in convection-permitting models significantly exceeds aerosol effects
This study investigates the hydrometeor development and response to cloud droplet number concentration (CDNC) perturbations in convection-permitting model configurations. We present results from a real-data simulation of deep convection in the Congo basin, an idealised supercell case, and a warm...
