|Describe processes represented by the model=CAM treats radiative transfer, tidal forcing from Saturn, a planetary boundary layer and surface interaction, thermal conduction in the soil and chemistry. The CARMA part of the code does the aerosol microphysics involving emission, coagulation and sedimentation. | |Describe processes represented by the model=CAM treats radiative transfer, tidal forcing from Saturn, a planetary boundary layer and surface interaction, thermal conduction in the soil and chemistry.
