Figure 2 a Vertical section of horizontally and temporally averaged cloud-hydrometeor differences between Sice and Ctrl: the longshort-dashed line denotes the difference of cloud water; the long-dashed line is the difference of rain; the short-dashed line is the difference of cloud ice; the dotted line is the difference of snow; the dot-dashed line is the difference of graupel; and the solid line is the difference of total cloud hydrometeors units: 10 -5 g g -1 . b-f Temporal section of spatially averaged differences of cloud-hydrometeor equations between Sice and Ctrl: b cloud water equation; c rain equation; d cloud ice equation; e snow equation; f graupel equation. The solid line is the difference of local change terms; the long-dashed line is the difference of advection terms; the short-dashed line is the difference of source or sink terms of microphysical processes; the dotted line is the difference of terminal velocity terms; and the dot-dashed line is the difference of turbulence terms units: 10 -7 s -1 . g The budget of the major microphysical differences, spatially, and temporally averaged: the spring Ħ°DĦħ denotes the microphysical-process difference between Sens and Ctrl; for example, Dpsaci=psaci|Sens-psaci|Ctrl units: 10 -8 g g -1 .
