Fluctuation Properties of Precipitation. Part I: On Deviations of Single-Size Drop Counts from the Poisson Distribution
TL;DR: In this article, the authors explore the possibility of deviations from the Poisson distribution using temporal raindrop counting experiments and find that a mixture of Poisson distributions (Poisson mixture) provides a better description of the frequency of drop arrivals per unit time in variable rain than does a simple Poisson model.
On the Spatial Distribution of Cloud Particles
TL;DR: In this paper, a new approach for exploring the stochastic structure of clouds is proposed using a direct relation between number density variance and the pair correlation function, which is shown to agree with pair correlation functions calculated for droplet counts obtained from an aircraft-mounted cloud probe.
Fluctuation Properties of Precipitation. Part VI: Observations of Hyperfine Clustering and Drop Size Distribution Structures in Three-Dimensional Rain
TL;DR: In this paper, it is shown that physical patches of drop size distributions (often exponential in form) exist and can be measured even over time periods as small as 2-3 s.
Spurious power-law relations among rainfall and radar parameters
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined statistical physics of rain from the point of view of the modern theory of random processes and found that most of the reported Z−R and other rainfall parameter relations over the last several decades are likely to be spurious because n was too small by factors of hundreds to thousands.

Disdrometer Network Observations of Finescale Spatial–Temporal Clustering in Rain
TL;DR: In this article, a network of 21 optical disdrometers over a small area near Charleston, South Carolina was used to detect the spatial and temporal clustering of rain drops, and it was shown that the more convective rain dominated by spatial clustering while the opposite holds for the more stratiform rain.
