Cumulus parameterization controls simulated rainfall more than microphysics, but not at heavy thresholds: a 3 * 2 factorial WRF study over the Western Himalaya
Satyam Kumar, Akshay Sunil, Devesh Sheoran
Rainfall forecasts over the Western Himalaya remain poor, and the relative contributions of the cumulus and microphysics parameterizations to that error are not well constrained.

Boundary-layer scheme selection outweighs microphysics in WRF simulations of the August 2018 Kerala extreme rainfall event
Satyam Kumar, Akshay Sunil, Rashad PE
Because precipitation is regulated by intricate interactions between topography, cloud microphysics,cumulus convection, radiation, and boundary-layer processes, it is still difficu…
