Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2023 We extend the previously developed stochastic unified convection scheme (UNICON) for shallow convection to deep convection by parameterizing the impact of mesoscale organized flow on updraft properties.

Empirical evidence for deep convection being a major source of stratospheric ice clouds over North America [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2021 Ice clouds in the lowermost stratosphere affect stratospheric water vapour and the Earth's radiation budget. The knowledge of its occurrence and driving forces is limited.

Seasonal dynamics and annual budget of dissolved inorganic carbon in the northwestern Mediterranean deep-convection region [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2023 Deep convection plays a key role in the circulation, thermodynamics, and biogeochemical cycles in the Mediterranean Sea, which is considered to be a hotspot of biodiversity and climate change.

Why did deep convection persist over four consecutive winters (2015–2018) southeast of Cape Farewell? [PDF]
Ocean Science, 2020 After more than a decade of shallow convection, deep convection returned to the Irminger Sea in 2008 and occurred several times since then to reach exceptional convection depths (> 1500 m) in 2015 and 2016.

A dynamic explanation for the origin of the western Mediterranean organic-rich layers [PDF]
, 2008 The eastern Mediterranean sapropels are among the most intensively investigated phenomena in the paleoceanographic record, but relatively little has been written regarding the origin of the equivalent of the sapropels in the western Mediterranean, the ...

The Grell–Freitas (GF) convection parameterization: recent developments, extensions, and applications [PDF]
Geoscientific Model Development, 2021 Recent developments and options in the GF (Grell and Freitas, 2014; Freitas et al., 2018) convection parameterization are presented. The parameterization has been expanded to a trimodal spectral size to simulate three convection modes: shallow, congestus,

Interactions between shallow and deep convection under a finite departure from convective quasi–equilibrium [PDF]
, 2012 The present paper presents a simple theory for the transformation of non-precipitating, shallow convection into precipitating, deep convective clouds. In order to make the pertinent point a much idealized system is considered, consisting only of shallow ...
