This dataset and manuscript present a novel “minimal” framework for representing cloud droplet charge dynamics in atmospheric models. The central innovation is a prognostic charge-bucket scheme: a lightweight but physically grounded method for tracking charge accumulation, discharge, and feedbacks within three dynamically evolving aerosol size bins (“buckets”).
