We present a coarse-grained lattice model of solvation thermodynamics and thehydrophobic effect that implements the ideas of Lum-Chandler-Weeks (LCW) theory[J. Phys. Chem. B 103, 4570 (1999)] and improves upon previous lattice modelsbased on it. Through comparison with molecular simulation, we show that ourmodel captures the length-scale and curvature dependence of solvation freeenergies with near-quantitative accuracy and two to three orders of magnitudeless computational effort, and further, correctly describes the large but raresolvent fluctuations that are involved in dewetting, vapor tube formation andhydrophobic assembly. Our model is intermediate in detail and complexitybetween implicit-solvent models and explicit-water simulations.
