Cloud shadows extended size (Clouds tab) slightly affects the size of shadows.

The depth of the shadows has no separate adjustment.

When you make lit areas of terrain brighter by increasing Diffuse sunlight on terrain (Lighting tab), the shadows become relatively deeper. When you decrease Ambient sunligth on terrain (Lighting tab) the shadows (unlit areas) become deeper.

Increasing diffuse light together with decreasing ambient light make the constrast between lit and shadowed areas stronger.
