Discussion
Which quantity does a mass flux convection scheme carry?
Answer: A
Mass flux schemes represent the ensemble of clouds within a grid box by a single upward mass flux and its associated entrainment and detrainment, from which the effect on the box mean profile is computed. Individual cloud properties are neither tracked nor needed. The closure, which determines the magnitude of the flux, is the most uncertain part of such schemes and a longstanding source of model error. Checking the units of each quantity catches a wrong formula before the arithmetic begins.
