The differences in the concepts of two different parameterizations of cloud microphysics are analyzed. Simulations alternatively applying these parameterizations are performed for a Baltic heat cyclone event. The results of the simulations are compared to each other as well as to observed distributions of cloudiness and snowfall. The main differences between the simulated distributions result from the assumptions on ice, the ice classes, and size distributions of the cloud and precipitating particles. Both schemes succeeded in predicting the position and the main structure of the main cloud and snowfall fields. Nevertheless, the more convective type parameterization overestimates, while the other one underestimates snowfall. === Die Unterschiede in den Konzepten zweier unterschiedlicher Parametrisierungen der Wolkenmikrophysik werden analysiert.
