(a) Median in‐cloud ice number concentration from the N(D)1 = 0 assumption for CALIPSO observations summarized by Mitchell et al. (2018) together with the median predicted ice number concentrations from a set of simulations given in Table 2 for JJA in the Northern Hemisphere. The modeled cloud optical depth is restricted to the range from 0.3 to 3.0. (b) As in (a) for DJF in the Northern Hemisphere. CALIPSO = Cloud‐Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observation; JJA = June‐July‐August; DJF = December‐January‐February.
