string :summary = "This experiment contains the model output from a series of sensitivity simulations, called rain, carried out with the global aerosol-climate model ECHAM6-HAM2. The simulation were performed within the scope of the AeroCom project. In general, the rain sensitivity study aims to provide a process-based observational constraint on the cloud lifetime effect by examining the parameterized precipitation stemming from warm rain. Details can be found in the associated publication of Mülmenstädt et al., (2020). The sensitivity simulations aim at investigating the effect of changing the autoconversion tuning factor (gamma) and the critical effective radius (rc) in the parameterization of autoconversion (see Fig.3 and Eq. 3 in Mülmenstädt et al., (2020)). The respective setting of these parameters is indicated in the dataset group name (e.g. AeroCom ECHAM6-HAM2 warm rain sensitivity simulation gamma${x_gamma} rc${x_rc}. In the default setting of ECHAM6-HAM2, gamma is 4 and rc is -1. rc=-1 is used for simulations where no critical impact radius is applied. In addition to microphysical variables, the model output includes simulated radar reflections from CloudSat created with the satellite simulator COSP (Cloud Feedback Model Intercomparison Project Observational Simulator Package, see Bodas-Salcedo et al., (2011)). The radar reflectivities are outputted on so-called subcolumns to include information on the subgrid variability of hydrometeors. The model output is provided as global fields on a reduced Gaussian Grid (N48) with 3-hourly temporal resolution." ;
