Corrigendum to "Microphysical Process Rates and Global Aerosol-Cloud Interactions" published in Atmos. Chem. Phys., 13, 9855–9867, 2013

A mistake swapped process rates between autoconversion and accretion in global model solutions. Revised figures are presented. The accretion to autoconversion ratio in the model does increase with Liquid Water Path (LWP) as in the steady state model but biases remain. Simulated autoconversion rates...

Description
Summary:A mistake swapped process rates between autoconversion and accretion in global model solutions. Revised figures are presented. The accretion to autoconversion ratio in the model does increase with Liquid Water Path (LWP) as in the steady state model but biases remain. Simulated autoconversion rates are too high. Adjusting process rates following the steady state model ideas leads to an improvement in process rates. The main conclusion is unaffected.
