Comparison of Two-Moment Bulk Microphysics Schemes in Idealized Supercell Thunderstorm Simulations (2011, methodology): “…described in Morrison et al. (2005) and subsequently implemented into the fifth-generation Pennsylvania State University–National Center for Atmospheric Research (PSU–NCAR) Mesoscale Model (MM5; Morrison and Pinto 2005, 2006; Morrison et al. 2008) and WRF (MTT09; Solomon et al. 2009).”
Aerosol indirect effects in a multi-scale aerosol-climate model PNNL-MMF (2011, background): “Several ice nucleation mechanisms are included: contact nucleation of cloud droplets following Morrison and Pinto (2005); immersion freezing of cloud droplets and rain following Bigg (1953); deposition-condensation freezing nucleation following Thompson et al. (2004), which is based on ice crystal…”
Moisture and dynamical interactions maintaining decoupled Arctic mixed-phase stratocumulus in the presence of a humidity inversion (2011, methodology): “Ice is initiated by deposition nucleation, contact freezing, and immersion freezing (see Morrison and Pinto (2005) for details on parameterizations used in the model).”
A new two-moment bulk stratiform cloud microphysics scheme in the Community Atmosphere Model, version 3 (CAM3). Part I: Description and numerical tests (2008, methodology): “Two-moment schemes have been used fairly extensively in cloud-resolving and mesoscale models (e.g., Ferrier 1994; Meyers et al. 1997; Khairoutidnov and Kogan 2000; Seifert and Beheng 2001; Morrison and Pinto 2005; Milbrandt and Yau 2005; Morrison and Grabowski 2007; Phillips et al. 2007).”
Development of an Effective Double-Moment Cloud Microphysics Scheme with Prognostic Cloud Condensation Nuclei (CCN) for Weather and Climate Models (2010, background): “…of a subgrid vertical velocity derived from the planetary boundary layer and turbulence diffusion scheme into the CCN activation process (Ghan et al. 1997; Morrison et al. 2005; Morrison and Pinto 2005) would be more physically reasonable in estimating Smax, which can be pursued in future studies.”
Inclusion of Ice Microphysics in the NCAR Community Atmospheric Model Version 3 (CAM3) (2007, background): “Following Morrison and Pinto (2005), we neglect the impact of phoretic forces on the grid-scale collection rate because these forces depend on local gradients of temperature and water vapor that are not resolved at the GCM scale.”
Impact of Cloud Microphysics on the Development of Trailing Stratiform Precipitation in a Simulated Squall Line: Comparison of One- and Two-Moment Schemes (2009, methodology): “This scheme is based on the parameterization of MCK, and subsequently implemented into the fifth-generation Pennsylvania State University–National Center for Atmospheric Research (PSU–NCAR) Mesoscale Model (MM5; Morrison and Pinto 2005, 2006; Morrison et al. 2008).”
Sensitivity of a Simulated Squall Line to Horizontal Resolution and Parameterization of Microphysics (2012, unknown): “…and subsequently implemented, with modiﬁcations, into the ﬁfth-generation Pennsylvania State University–National Center for Atmospheric Research Mesoscale Model (MM5; Morrison and Pinto 2005, 2006; Morrison et al. 2008) and the Weather Research and Forecasting model (WRF; Morrison et al. 2009).”
Intercomparison of cloud model simulations of Arctic mixed‐phase boundary layer clouds observed during SHEBA/FIRE‐ACE (2011, background): “Numerous modeling studies have shown that the parameterization of microphysics is a key in simulating Arctic mixedphase clouds (e.g., Harrington et al. 1999; Jiang et al. 2000; Morrison et al. 2003; Morrison and Pinto 2005; Sandvik et al. 2007; Prenni et al. 2007; Luo et al. 2008a; Fan et al. 2009).”
Climate Models: An Assessment of Strengths and Limitations (2008, background): “1999; Chiacchio, Francis, and Stackhouse 2002; Pavolonis, Key, and Cassano 2004) and cloud microphysics in the relatively clean polar atmosphere (Curry et al. 1996; Pinto, Curry, and Intrieri 2001; Morrison and Pinto 2005).”
