The activation of aerosols is neglected or simplified in many current cloud physical modeling approaches. By simulating so-called super-droplets, which are Lagrangian particles representing a certain number of real droplets of the same features (e.g., radius, aerosol mass), the LCM (Lagrangian Cloud Model) offers a very accurate parametrization of the activation process considering solute and curvature effects.
