本文评述了积云参数化的闭合假设, 简述并比较了四类有代表性的积云参数化方案, 回顾了八十年代以来各类方案的新进展, 最后从预报角度讨论了有关问题。

In this review, firstly, the closure assumptions in cumulus convection parameterization have been presented. Then, four schemes typical of cumulus parameterization were classified and their comparisons were made. Again then, the recent progress and the state of the art in the cumulus parameterization have been obriefly reviewed. Finally, some discussions and remarks on the parameterization were given, ,but with a emphasis on the numerical weather prediction.
