However he does it, he should perhaps desist from spending time on his latest aquisition (apparently that is «Everything Anyone Would Ever Want To Know About Cloud Microphysics» by Khvorostyanov & Curry which isn't exactly a light read) and instead do us lesser mortals the courtesy of explaining himself.

On the matter of the role of condensation nuclei, a few general circulation models do have some crude representation of nucleation microphysics in their convection or cloud schemes, but it certainly isn't the key factor in the weak increase of precipitation with temperature, which is seen in all GCM's including those with very basic representations of convection.

For those of you who know what Coulumb's law is — this may strike you as not so hard to understand, but for those who don't know what a static field is, well, it's going to be hard to understand, but that QBO was during this past month at a record negative reading, and that, IMHO, is indicative of very specific conditions where capactive couplings could and did occur to impact cloud microphysics properties.

Since one twiddles or tunes certain poorly constrained historical parameters and poorly understood microphysics (doesn't «tune» sound more harmonic than kludge?

«Some other models like CESM1 did include microphysics and an indirect aerosol effect, and had slightly lower 20th Century warming than observed... yet its climate sensitivity is higher than for [some other models that don't include the indirect aerosol effect]... the [GWPF] comment presumes that models have been tuned to reproduce the 20th Century temperature record, but this is mostly not true»
