If the Zhao-Carr MP scheme is called, calwxt_dominant() takes the precipitation type solution from different algorithms
(calwxt(), calwxt_ramer(), calwxt_revised(), and calwxt_bourg())and uses them up to output a dominant type.

If the GFDL MP scheme is called, the precipitation type at the surface is directly diagnosed from the microphysics species
predicted by the scheme.
GFDL MP scheme permits the prognostic surface precipitation to simultaneously consist of ice, snow and graupel at the
same location. Hence if the GFDL MP scheme is called, the precipitation type at the surface is
directly diagnosed from the explicit surface precipitation (i.e. ice, snow and graupel)
predicted by the scheme and convective rainfall predicted by the cumulus scheme if surface temperature is below \f$0^oC\f$ .

Welcome to the GMTB Common Community Physics Package (CCPP) v2.0 scientific documentation. This release
of the CCPP contains two parts: CCPP-Physics (a collection of physical parameterizations) and
CCPP-framework (the infrastructure that connects the CCPP-Physics to host models).

The CCPP-Physics is envisioned to contain parameterizations used by NOAA operational models for weather through
seasonal prediction timescales, as well as developmental schemes under consideration for upcoming
operational implementations. This version contains the parameterizations of the default physics suite
of FV3GFS as of August 2018, along with the microphysics scheme that is used in the operational
