A study of the microphysical processes in a numerically simulated heavy snowfall event in North China: the sensitivity of different snow intercept parameters

We performed a modeling study of the cloud processes in a heavy snowfall event occurring in North China on 20–22 December 2004. The nonhydrostatic Mesoscale Model (MM5) was used to carry out experiments with the Reisner-2 explicit microphysical parameterizations in four nested domains to test the se...
