+Parameter to steer splitting algorithm.\\\\
+
+The splitting of cloud droplets can be done in using different modes. The user can choose between the following modes:\\\\
+
+'' 'const' ''
+      In splitting mode 'const' a critical radius  (radius_split) a critical weighting factor (weight_factor_split) and a splitting factor (splitting_factor) must  be prescribed. Super droplets which have a larger radius and larger weighting factor are split into 'splitting_factor' super droplets. Therefore, the weighting factor of  the super droplet and all created clones is reduced by the factor of 'splitting_factor'.
+
+'' 'cl_av' ''
+      In splitting mode 'cl_av'  a critical radius (radius_split) and a splitting function must be prescribed. The critical weighting factor is calculated while approximating a 'gamma', 'log' or 'exp'- drop size distribution. In this mode a drop size distribution (discretized in 100 bins in a range from 1.0E-6 m to 1 mm) is calculated as an average over all cloudy grid boxes. Super droplets which have a larger radius and larger weighting factor are split into 'splitting_factor' super droplets. In this case the splitting factor is calculated of weighting factor of the super droplet and the approximated number concentration for droplet of such a size. Due to the splitting, the weighting factor of the super droplet and all created clones is reduced by the factor of 'splitting_facor'.
+
+'' 'gb_av' ''
+      Same as for 'cl_av' but a drop size distribution is calculated for every grid box.
