Parametrization (climate)
Parametrization within a climate model refers to the method of replacing processes that are too small-scale or complex to be physically represented in the model by a simplified process. This can be contrasted with other processes - for example the large-scale motions of the atmosphere - that are explicitly resolved within the models.
