Hydrometeor mixing ratio

[antia]

How is hydrometeor mixing ratio (e.g. QSNOW) calculated in WRF?

We would like to calculate each hydrometeor water content.

Thanks in advance

This likely depends on which physics schemes you're using. If you go to the top-level WRF directory and search for the variable

grep -i qsnow */*.F

you will see all the files that use that term. You can try to take a look at the code that's specific to your schemes and see how it's coded. If you're still having trouble, can you attach your namelist.input file so we can take a look?
