Comparison of Two-Moment Bulk Microphysics Schemes in Idealized Supercell Thunderstorm Simulations (2011, background): “On the other hand, the paradigm of including different classes of ice with fixed characteristics may lead to uncertainty given that in nature ice particles exhibit a continuum of characteristics (cf. Morrison and Grabowski 2008).”
Confronting the Challenge of Modeling Cloud and Precipitation Microphysics (2020, methodology): “…such as particle aspect ratio, rime mass fraction, liquid fraction, and density without using predefined ice categories (Cholette et al., 2019; Harrington et al., 2013; Jensen et al., 2017; Lin & Colle, 2011; Milbrandt & Morrison, 2016; Morrison & Grabowski, 2008; Morrison & Milbrandt, 2015).”
A Comparison of TWP-ICE Observational Data with Cloud-Resolving Model Results (2012, methodology): “EULAG-2 uses a 4 of 28 single size distribution for all ice that is further characterized by a prognostic rimed mass fraction [Morrison and Grabowski, 2007, 2008a, 2008b].”
Ensemble Kalman Filter Assimilation of Radar Observations of the 8 May 2003 Oklahoma City Supercell: Influences of Reflectivity Observations on Storm-Scale Analyses (2011, result): “Double- and triple-moment schemes (Seifert and Beheng 2001; Milbrandt and Yau 2005; Morrison and Grabowski 2008) could mitigate some of the model errors that affect our results.”
Sensitivity of a Simulated Squall Line to Horizontal Resolution and Parameterization of Microphysics (2012, unknown): “The paradigm of including different classes of ice with ﬁxed characteristics leads to uncertainty given that, in nature, ice particles exhibit a continuum of characteristics (cf. Morrison and Grabowski 2008).”
A New Bulk Microphysical Scheme That Includes Riming Intensity and Temperature-Dependent Ice Characteristics (2011, methodology): “Using a similar approach, Morrison and Grabowski (2008) considered the variation of particle properties with particle size and rimed mass fraction.”
Parameterization of Cloud Microphysics Based on the Prediction of Bulk Ice Particle Properties. Part I: Scheme Description and Idealized Tests (2015, methodology): “…Microphysical Process Formulations a. Droplet and crystal nucleation In the version of the schemewith prognosticNc, droplet activation is given by Morrison and Grabowski (2007, 2008b), assuming a constant background aerosol concentration and that the concentration of previously activated cloud…”
Impact of Cloud Microphysics on the Development of Trailing Stratiform Precipitation in a Simulated Squall Line: Comparison of One- and Two-Moment Schemes (2009, background): “The threshold mixing ratios for conversion to graupel are fairly arbitrary; sensitivity to these thresholds was examined by Morrison and Grabowski (2008).”
