Summary

Chapter 7 discusses the structure of cloud models and cloud resolving models. We describe simulations of different atmospheric phenomena performed using spectral (bin) microphysics and bulk parameterization and present a detailed comparison of the results obtained in these simulations. Effects of cloud-aerosol interaction on the microstructure and intensity of clouds and cloud-related mesoscale phenomena such as thunderstorms, mesoscale convective systems and hurricanes are described in a systematic presentation, with a special focus put on aerosol effects on precipitation. We discuss most important recent advancements in bin modeling of clouds and cloud-related phenomena, in particular in simulation of drizzle and ice formation in stratocumulus clouds and rain and hail formation in convective clouds. Perspectives of cloud modeling are outlined in the end of the Chapter.
