Terminal Velocities of Droplets and Crystals: Power Laws with Continuous Parameters over the Size Spectrum

Khvorostyanov and Curry present a unified treatment of cloud particle fall velocities for both liquid and crystalline cloud particles over the entire range observed in the atmosphere. The fall velocity representation is formulated in terms of the Best number X, and the Reynolds number Re.
