T is temperature, QV is atmospheric moisture—vapor mixing ratio, Q1C: the “apparent heat source,” Q2: the “apparent moist sink,” PREC: precipitation rates, and CLD: cloudiness. Numbers in the table show the dimensionality of the corresponding input and output parameters. In:Out stand for NN inputs and outputs and show their corresponding numbers.
