Relationship between drizzle rate, liquid water path and droplet concentration at the scale of a stratocumulus cloud system
The recent ACE-2, EPIC and DYCOMS-II field experiments showed that the drizzle precipitation rate of marine stratocumulus scales with the cloud geometrical thickness or liquid water path, and the droplet concentration, when averaged over a domain typical of a GCM grid.This feature is replicated here with large-eddy-simulations using Portable Dishwa
