a simple test with libradtran for schemes with diagnosable r_eff
optionally include radiative effects on drop growth? see below:
Bott et al. 1990: ... diffusional growth of the particles is calculated by considering radiative effects in the droplet growth equation. Numerical results elucidate that the strong interaction between the radiatively induced droplet growth and their gravitational settling is responsible for a distinct reduction of the liquid water content ...
Austin et al. 1995: ... Radiative cooling near the top of a layer cloud plays a dominant role in droplet condensation growth. ...
Harrington et al. 2000: ... production of drizzle-sized drops is strongly dependent upon parcel cloud-top residence time for both radiative- and nonradiative-influenced growth. Drizzle-sized drops can be produced between 20 and 50 min earlier through the inclusion of the radiative term, which corroborates earlier results...
Marquis et al. 2005: ... shortwave (SW) heating of individual drops can be strong enough that drop temperatures at equilibrium deviate by as much as 6°C from the surrounding environment ...
