A Lagrangian Perspective on Parameterizing Deep Convection

Monthly Weather Review, 2019
Abstract The parameterization of deep moist convection as a subgrid-scale process in numerical models of the atmosphere is required at resolutions that extend well into the convective “gray zone,” the range of grid spacings over which such convection is partially resolved.

The Parameterization of Deep Convection

1997
Insights into the parameterization of convection from two decades of diagnostic studies are reviewed. The life cycle of a convective mesosystem mass flux is described using day 245 from the GARP Atlantic Tropical Experiment as example. The thermodynamic differences between non-precipitating convection and precipitating convection are discussed, as well

Parameterized convection and the thermal evolution of the earth

Tectonophysics, 1981
Abstract Thermal convection is an efficient means of extracting heat from the interior of the earth. Heat lost from the earth's interior comes from the decay of radioactive isotopes and the cooling of the earth. To determine the magnitude of each contribution detailed studies of the convective mechanism must be carried out.

Condensation Parameterization in a Convection Model

1983
Condensation is one of the main physical processes which has to be taken into account in atmospheric convection modeling. The problem is treated here with the simplest microphysical approach but with emphasis on the way condensation may be taken into account in subgrid-scale parameterization methods.

Parameterized Slantwise Convection in a Numerical Model

Monthly Weather Review, 1992
Abstract A convective parameterization that mimics the theoretical effects of slantwise convection initiated by the release of conditional symmetric instability (CSI) is tested in a three-dimensional primitive equation model. Great positive impact is noted. The scheme is simplest to consider as a Kuo-type convective scheme that operates along (slanted)

Non-precipitating cumulus convection and its parameterization

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, 1973
AbstractThis paper discusses the thermodynamic transports of heat, liquid water and (briefly) water vapour by non‐precipitating cumulus convection. It is shown that because of the irreversible mixing between cloud and environment, there is a downward transport of enthalphy in the cumulus layer.

Validation of parameterized convective fluxes with DIAMOD

Meteorology and Atmospheric Physics, 1995
A diagnostic model (DIAMOD) for the atmosphere over Europe is use at the University of Vienna. Central parameters in each diagnostic column (horizontal resolution 100 km, time resolution 12 hours) are the vertical moisture plus heat flux (the total convective heat fluxh) and the vertical rain flux (r); both are functions of pressure.

The parameterization of slantwise convection in a numerical model

2021
<p>     Slantwise convection and the associated release of conditional symmetric instability (CSI) have been recognized as important baroclinic processes. Recent climatological studies have highlighted its significant association with midlatitude cyclone activities, raising ...

A framework for parameterization of heterogeneous ocean convection

Ocean Modelling, 2014
Abstract We propose a new framework for parameterization of ocean convection processes. The new framework is termed “patchy convection” since our aim is to represent the heterogeneity of mixing processes that take place within the horizontal scope of a grid cell.
