TL;DR: In this paper, a review of recent observational, numerical, and theoretical studies of climate feedbacks is presented, showing that there has been progress since the Third Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change in (i) the understanding of the physical mechanisms involved in these feedbacks, (ii) the interpretation of intermodel differences in global estimates of the feedbacks associated with water vapor, lapse rate, clouds, snow, and sea ice, and (iii) the development of methodologies of evaluation of these inputs using observations.
On the development of the GRAPES——A new generation of the national operational NWP system in China
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors propose a method to improve the quality of the information provided by the NWP and GRAPES, which is based on the concept of "transformation".

Recent Advances in Quantifying Wet Scavenging Efficiency of Black Carbon Aerosol
Yuxiang Yang,Yuzhen Fu,Qinhao Lin,Feng Jiang,Xiufeng Lian,Lei Li,Zhanyong Wang,Guohua Zhang,Xinhui Bi,Xinming Wang,Guoying Sheng +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors summarized the MSEs and potential factors that influence the in-cloud and below-cloud scavenging of black carbon aerosol and suggested that more comprehensive methods should be further estimated to obtain high time-resolved scavenging efficiency.

Bulk Parameterization of the Snow Field in a Cloud Model
TL;DR: In this paper, a two-dimensional, time-dependent cloud model was used to simulate a moderate intensity thunderstorm for the High Plains region, where six forms of water substance (water vapor, cloud water, cloud ice, rain, snow and hail) were simulated.

A Revised Approach to Ice Microphysical Processes for the Bulk Parameterization of Clouds and Precipitation
TL;DR: In this paper, a revised approach to cloud microphysical processes in a commonly used bulk microphysics parameterization and the importance of correctly representing properties of cloud ice are discussed, and the impact of sedimentation of ice crystals is also investigated.

On the distribution and continuity of water substance in atmospheric circulations
TL;DR: In this paper, the conservation and distribution of water substance in atmospheric circulations are considered within a frame of continuity principles, model air flows, and models of microphysical processes, where the simplest considerations of precipitation involve its vertical distribution in an updraft column, where condensate appears immediately as precipitation with uniform terminal fallspeed.
