Integral Effects of Deep Convection

Journal of Physical Oceanography, 1995
Abstract The large-scale, integral effect of convective elements (plumes) constituting an open-ocean chimney is investigated both theoretically and with a plume-resolving numerical model. The authors consider an initially homogeneous “patch” of ocean of depth H, with Coriolis parameter f, in which buoyancy is lost from the surface at a rate B.

Sources of predictability for deep convection

2019
The advent of convection-permitting ensemble prediction systems at most operational weather centers within the last 15 years constitutes a step-change in our ability to forecast convection. This is a fundamental task for weather services, as not only the general public demands good and reliable forecasts of convection, but they can also be accompanied ...

Chapter 5.5 Deep convection

2001
Publisher Summary This chapter reviews deep convection with emphasis on advances made during the World Ocean Circulation Experiment (WOCE) observing period. It describes some features of plumes, the convective mixing agents. The chapter also discusses two phenomena's associated with the convection.

Deep convection in the World Ocean

Reviews of Geophysics, 1983
A brief discussion of, and a little speculation about, the relevance of the polar regions on climate is given. The main body of the paper gives a survey of the known deep convection areas of the world ocean. There are two distinct types of convection. The first is the classic sinking occurring on continental shelf slope systems, as typified by various ...

The Mesoscale Organization of Deep Convection

1997
The organization of systems at all scales has long been an observed feature in meteorology. Coherent structures can be found from eddies in the planetary boundary layer up to tropical cyclones and mid-latitude depressions. The problem of organization is thus of a fundamental nature. An understanding of the organization of deep convection is relevant to

Rotating deep annulus convection

Tellus, 1969
Sixteen meridian-plane temperature profiles were obtained in the upper symmetric regime of a differentially heated rotating annulus of water by means of a thermocouple probe. This probe, though made as small as practicable, disturbed the flow field, and the nature of the disturbance and its correction is discussed.

On the Thermodynamic Equation for Deep Convection

Monthly Weather Review, 1977
Abstract A review is given of six equations that are used to approximate reversible saturated parcel ascent. These approximations are compared with the aid of several examples and their appropriateness for use in modeling deep clouds discussed.
