cld_init General Algorithm

  • If using diagnostic cloud method, call rhtable() to set up tuned relative humidity table; If using prognostic cloud method, check if the MP exists.
  • Compute the top of BL cld (llyr), which is the topmost non cld(low) layer for stratiform (at or above lowest 0.1 of the atmosphere).
