v4 v5 6 6 7 7 8 PALM offers an embedded bulk cloud microphysics representation that takes into account warm (i.e., no ice) cloud-microphysical processes.8 PALM offers an embedded bulk cloud microphysics representation that takes into account cloud-microphysical processes for warm or mixed-phase clouds. 9 9 Therefore, PALM solves the prognostic equations for the total water mixing ratio 10 10 {{{ … … 24 24 instead of ''θ'' as described in Sect. [wiki:doc/tec/gov governing equations]. Since ''q'' and ''θ'',,l,, are conserved quantities for wet adiabatic processes, condensation/evaporation is not considered for these variables. 25 25 26 PALM offers different schemes of ([#kessler1969 Kessler (1969)], [#seifert2001 Seifert and Beheng (2001],[#seifert2006 2006)], [#morrison2007 Morrison et al. (2007)]) for the treatment of liquid phase microphysics. Depending of the choice of the microphysical scheme the different prognostic quantities are use and different microphysical processes are considered. 26 PALM offers different schemes of ([#kessler1969 Kessler (1969)], [#seifert2001 Seifert and Beheng (2001],[#seifert2006 2006)], [#morrison2007 Morrison et al.

In the following the schemes and their underlying processes are introduced. 27 27 28 28 '''Saturation Adjustment'''
