This scheme is featured with:

• bulk cloud microphysics
• processes splitting with some un-split sub-grouping
• time implicit (when possible) accretion and autoconversion

GFDL icloud Detailed Algorithm

• Define conversion scalar/factor.
• Define heat capacity and latend heat coefficient.
• Calculate \(P_{imlt}\): instant melting of cloud ice.
• Calculate \(P_{ihom}\): homogeneous freezing of cloud water into cloud ice. This is the 1st occurance of liquid water freezing in the split MP process.
• Call linear_prof() to calculate vertical subgrid variability of cloud ice.
• Update capacity heat and latend heat coefficient.
• Melting of snow:
• \(P_{sacw}\): accretion of cloud water by snow
• \(P_{sacr}\): accretion of rain by melted snow
  • \(P_{racs}\): accretion of snow by rain
• Total snow sink: \(P_{smlt}\): snow melt (smlt(); due to rain accretion)
• Update capacity heat and latend heat coefficient.
• Melting of graupel:
• \(P_{gacr}\): accretion of rain by graupel
• \(P_{gacw}\): accretion of cloud water by graupel
• \(P_{gmlt}\): graupel melt (gmlt())
• Cloud ice processes:
• \(P_{saci}\): accretion of cloud ice by snow
• \(P_{saut}\): autoconversion: cloud ice \(\rightarrow\) snow.
  similar to Lin et al.(1983) [115] eq. 21 solved implicitly; threshold from wsm6 scheme, Hong et al. (2004) [91], eq (13) : qi0_crt ~0.8e-4.
• \(P_{gaci}\): accretion of cloud ice by graupel
• Cold-rain processes:
• \(P_{sacr}\): accretion of rain by snow (acr3d())
• \(P_{gfr}\): rain freezing \(\rightarrow\) graupel
• Calculate total sink to \(q_r\) :
  Sink terms to \(q_r\): \(P_{sacr}+P_{gfr}\)
  source term to \(q_s\): \(P_{sacr}\)
  source term to \(q_g\): \(P_{gfr}\)
• Update capacity heat and latend heat coefficient.
• Graupel production terms:
• accretion: snow \(\rightarrow\) graupel (acr3d())
• autoconversion: snow \(\rightarrow\) graupel
• \(P_{gacw}\): accretion of cloud water by graupel
• \(P_{gacr}\): accretion of rain by graupel (acr3d())
• Call subgrid_z_proc() for subgrid cloud microphysics.
