Fig. 5. Increase in in-cloud accretion and autoconversion rates with warming in the Eocene simulations.

Fig. 5

(A) Zonal mean in-cloud accretion rate (in g kg−1 day−1; conversion of cloud water to precipitation through rain droplets intercepting and collecting small cloud droplets) in the Eocene 1× simulation. (B) As in (A) but for the Eocene 6× experiment. (C) Zonal mean in-cloud autoconversion rate (in g kg−1 day−1; conversion of cloud water to precipitation by coalescence and vapor diffusion) in the Eocene 1× simulation. (D) As in (C) but for the Eocene 6× experiment. Zonal mean of in-cloud accretion and autoconversion rates are calculated for grid points with cloud cover greater than 1%.
