Representation of microphysical processes in cloud‐resolving models: Spectral (bin) microphysics versus bulk parameterization (2015, methodology): “To avoid this problem, many bulk parameterization schemes [e.g., Milbrandt and Yau, 2005a; Morrison et al., 2005a, 2005b] use the formula proposed by Murakami [1990] (equation (F3) in Table 5).”

An improved representation of the raindrop size distribution for single‐moment microphysics schemes (2012, background): “…complexity described in the literature, the DSD of rain in these schemes is typically represented with either a gamma distribution (Ferrier, 1994; Morrison et al., 2005) or an exponential distribution (Lin et al., 1983; Rutledge and Hobbs, 1983; Fowler et al., 1996; Wilson and Ballard, 1999;…”
