| cf_standard_name | effective_radius_of_convective_cloud_liquid_water_particles |
| description | Droplets are liquid. The effective radius is defined as the ratio of the third moment over the second moment of the particle size distribution and the time-mean should be calculated, weighting the individual samples by the cloudy fraction of the grid cell. |
