Table of Links Abstract & Introduction Methods Results Discussion Conclusions Next Steps & References Appendix A: Scattering of terrestrial exoplanets Appendix B: Corner Plots Appendix C: Bayes’ factor analysis: other epochs Appendix D: Cloudy scenarios: additional figures Appendix D: Cloudy scenarios: additional figures In this section, we provide additional plots for the cloudy scenarios. In Figures D.1 and D.2 we show the retrieved exoplanet parameters and abundances for the different scenarios with varying R and S/N values. Finally, we plot in Figure D.3 the maximum difference ∆ between the cumulative posteriors for the different model parameters, for each combination of the cloudy scenarios and different R-S/N pairs.
