Abstract

This note compares and evaluates the analytical solutions of Squires and Twomey for cloud droplet concentration. Either solution is likely to be fairly accurate (±30%) when the slope parameter (β) of the cloud condensation nuclei distribution is small (β<0.8). For large β errors increase rapidly and both solutions are likely to underestimate the actual drop concentration by a wide margin.
