Short summary
The paper presents a new cloud scheme for regional climate model RegCM4.5. The new scheme treats microphysical processes occurring within stratiform clouds and with respect to the pre-existing scheme is able to allow a more physically realistic representation of cloud microphysics and distribution, improving the representation of the longwave and shortwave components of the cloud radiative forcing.
