Fitting Cumulus Cloud Size Distributions From Idealized Cloud Resolving Model Simulations

Abstract Whereas it is now widely accepted that cumulus cloud sizes are power‐law distributed, characteristic exponents reported in the literature vary greatly, generally taking values between 1 and >3. Although these differences might be explained by variations in environmental conditions or phy...
