Toward Transparency and Consistency: An Open‐Source Optics Parameterization for Clouds and Precipitation

Abstract In this study, a new open‐source package for cloud and precipitation modeling is introduced. Based on Mie theory and existing ice crystal data sets, the scheme generates optical properties for user‐defined gas bands, particle size distribution, and crystal habits, ensuring continuity across...
