Detrainment in deep convection [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 2012 This study explores the mechanisms that determine detrainment in deep cumulus convection. A set of 90 high‐resolution Large Eddy Simulations is used to systematically explore the sensitivity of continental deep convection to the relative humidity and ...

Simulating deep convection with a shallow convection scheme [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2011 Convective processes profoundly affect the global water and energy balance of our planet but remain a challenge for global climate modeling. Here we develop and investigate the suitability of a unified convection scheme, capable of handling both shallow ...

Divergent convective outflow in ICON deep-convection-permitting and parameterised deep convection simulations [PDF]
Weather and Climate Dynamics, 2023 Upper-tropospheric deep convective outflows during an event on 10–11 June 2019 over central Europe are analysed in ensembles of the operational Icosahedral Nonhydrostatic (ICON) numerical weather prediction model.

Weakening of the AMOC and strengthening of Labrador Sea deep convection in response to external freshwater forcing [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsThe Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) is a key player in climate. Here, we employ an ensemble of water hosing experiments to examine mechanisms of AMOC weakening and its subsequent impact on the Labrador Sea open-ocean deep convection ...

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2020 In order to improve the physical consistency between shallow and deep convection, we modify the deep convective closure in the Community Atmosphere Model version 5 (CAM5) coupled with a third‐order turbulence closure parameterization (i.e., Cloud Layers ...

Geophysical Research Letters, 2017 Global climate models exhibit large biases in the Southern Ocean. For example, in models Antarctic bottom water is formed mostly through open‐ocean deep convection rather than through shelf convection.

Evaluation of Machine Learning Classifiers for Predicting Deep Convection
Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2019 The realistic representation of convection in atmospheric models is paramount for skillful predictions of hazardous weather as well as climate, yet climate models especially suffer from large uncertainties in the parameterization of clouds and convection.

Conditions for convective deep inflow
Geophysical Research Letters, 2022 Abstract Observations and cloud‐resolving simulations suggest that a convective updraft structure drawing mass from a deep lower‐tropospheric layer occurs over a wide range of conditions. This occurs for both mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) and less‐organized convection, raising the question: is there a simple, universal ...

A large-eddy simulation study of deep-convection initiation through the collision of two sea-breeze fronts [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2021 Deep convection plays important roles in producing severe weather and regulating the large-scale circulation. However, deep-convection initiation (DCI), which determines when and where deep convection develops, has not yet been fully understood.
