Abstract
The purpose of this comment is to provide a physical reasoning for the ice crystals-habit parameters in WSM and WDM MPs (Hong et al. 2004), in which intrinsic numerical “errors” in the original scheme are corrected in the subject paper (Kim et al. 2022). Here, we confirm that the parameters in Hong et al. are revisions made to the originally derived values (new method in Kim et al.) by considering uncertainties in the derived formula from limited observations and characteristics of ice-microphysical processes that were devised in Hong et al. Thus, “Numerical errors in ice microphysics parameterizations” in the title of the subject paper is incorrect and related discussions could be misleading.
摘要本评论的目的是为WSM和WDM MPs中的冰晶-习惯参数提供一个物理推理(Hong et al. 2004),其中原始方案中的固有数值“误差”在主题论文中得到了纠正(Kim et al. 2022)。在这里,我们确认Hong等人的参数是对原始推导值的修正(Kim等人的新方法),考虑了Hong等人设计的基于有限观测和冰微物理过程特征的推导公式中的不确定性。因此,主题论文标题中的“冰微物理参数化中的数值误差”是不正确的,相关讨论可能具有误导性。
期刊介绍:
The Asia-Pacific Journal of Atmospheric Sciences (APJAS) is an international journal of the Korean Meteorological Society (KMS), published fully in English. It has started from 2008 by succeeding the KMS'' former journal, the Journal of the Korean Meteorological Society (JKMS), which published a total of 47 volumes as of 2011, in its time-honored tradition since 1965. Since 2008, the APJAS is included in the journal list of Thomson Reuters’ SCIE (Science Citation Index Expanded) and also in SCOPUS, the Elsevier Bibliographic Database, indicating the increased awareness and quality of the journal.
