Uncertainty assessment of current size-resolved parameterizations for below-cloud particle scavenging by rain

Current theoretical and empirical size-resolved parameterizations of the scavenging coefficient (Λ), a parameter commonly used in aerosol transport models to describe below-cloud particle scavenging by rain, have been reviewed in detail and compared with available field and laboratory measurements....
