Finite domains cause bias in measured and modeled distributions of cloud sizes

Abstract ∼ 24 counts are omitted from the regression. A much more significant and underappreciated source of error is how to treat clouds that are truncated by the edges of unavoidably finite measurement domains. We offer a simple computational procedure to identify and correct for domain size effects, with potential application to any geometric size distribution of objects, whether physical, ecological, social or mathematical.
