abstract = {A new cloud microphysical scheme including a detailed
parameterization for aerosol-driven ice formation in cirrus
clouds is implemented in the global ECHAM/MESSy Atmospheric
Chemistry (EMAC) chemistry–climate model and coupled to
the third generation of the Modal Aerosol Dynamics model for
Europe adapted for global applications (MADE3) aerosol
submodel. The new scheme is able to consistently simulate
three regimes of stratiform clouds – liquid, mixed-, and
ice-phase (cirrus) clouds – considering the activation of
aerosol particles to form cloud droplets and the nucleation
of ice crystals. In the cirrus regime, it allows for the
competition between homogeneous and heterogeneous freezing
for the available supersaturated water vapor, taking into
account different types of ice-nucleating particles, whose
specific ice-nucleating properties can be flexibly varied in
the model setup. The new model configuration is tuned to
find the optimal set of parameters that minimizes the model
deviations with respect to observations. A detailed
evaluation is also performed comparing the model results for
standard cloud and radiation variables with a comprehensive
set of observations from satellite retrievals and in situ
measurements. The performance of EMAC-MADE3 in this new
coupled configuration is in line with similar global coupled
models and with other global aerosol models featuring ice
cloud parameterizations. Some remaining discrepancies,
namely a high positive bias in liquid water path in the
Northern Hemisphere and overestimated (underestimated) cloud
droplet number concentrations over the tropical oceans (in
the extratropical regions), which are both a common problem
in these kinds of models, need to be taken into account in
future applications of the model. To further demonstrate the
readiness of the new model system for application studies,
an estimate of the anthropogenic aerosol effective radiative
forcing (ERF) is provided, showing that EMAC-MADE3 simulates
a relatively strong aerosol-induced cooling but within the
range reported in the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate
Change (IPCC) assessments.},
