Cloud Fraction Parameterization

Cloud Fraction Parameterization is a model physics parameterization method that quantifies the subgrid-scale spatial variability of cloudiness within a numerical weather or climate model grid cell by diagnosing the fractional area covered by clouds as a function of resolved-scale atmospheric state variables.
