 The Dutch Atmospheric Large-Eddy Simulation [[https://github.com/dalesteam/dales|(DALES)]] model is one of the two large eddy simulations (LES) codes employed at InScAPE. A library of prototype cases is used for research and for further code development, including convective cases as well as cases of stratiform clouds. Many of these have been developed within the context of international model intercomparison projects, such as the GCSS boundary layer cloud working group. The library of cases also includes realistic cases at our [[testbed|Testbed]] locations that are based on a blend of observations and analyses obtained from weather forecast models. The testbed part of our case library spans multiple years at multiple locations of interest. The Dutch Atmospheric Large-Eddy Simulation [[https://github.com/dalesteam/dales|(DALES)]] model is one of the two large eddy simulations (LES) codes employed at InScAPE.

-The current main version of DALES ((Heus et al. (2010). //Formulation of the Dutch Atmospheric Large-Eddy Simulation (DALES) and overview of its applications//. Geoscientific model development 3, (2), pp.415-444. ''doi: 10.5194/gmd-3-415-2010'')) does not include a mixed-phase microphysics scheme. To this purpose we have implemented a full 3-phase microphysics scheme of Seifert-Beheng ((Seifert, A. and Beheng, K. D. (2001) //A double-moment parameterization for simulating autoconversion, accretion and selfcollection//. At-mos. Res., 59, pp. 265–281. ''doi:10.1016/S0169-8095(01)00126-0'')). This code development work has been supported by the (AC)<sup>3</sup> project. Our [[https://github.com/jchylik/dales/tree/to4.3_Fredrik_sb3cgn|enhanced version]] of DALES has been used for high-resolution simulations of [[arcticclouds|Arctic clouds]] observed during [[http://www.ac3-tr.de/news/acloud-campaign/|ACLOUD]] and PASCAL field campaigns ((Neggers er al. (2019). // Local and remote controls on Arctic mixed-layer evolution//.

''doi:10.1016/S0169-8095(01)00126-0'')). Apart from the full 2-moment scheme, our implementation also offers following options: 
 +  * prognostic treatment of cloud condensation nuclei 
 +  * starting with cloud ice profiles based on observations 
 +  * advection of cloud ice crystals
