“…Water‐soluble species may be scavenged by precipitation in the updraft, and the resulting sink depends on the precipitating area (again typically subgrid scale) and on the microphysical properties of cloud and rain. Recent theoretical studies have examined the scavenging efficiencies of water‐soluble gases in relation to gas‐droplet mass transfer [Schwartz, 1988b; Topalian and Montague, 1989; Lopez et al, 1989; Wexler and Seinfeld, 1990], cloud microphysics [Xing and Chameides, 1990], and rainfall frequency [Stewart, 1988; Stewart et al, 1989, 1990]. Advances in cloud chemistry modeling over the past few years have included condensation of chemical mechanisms [Pandis and Seinfeld, 1989a] and inclusion of cloud physics [Chang et al, 1987; Venkatram et al, 1988; Hales, 1989; Pandis and Seinfeld, 1989b].…”
