Internal Oscillations of Tropical Mesoscale Convective Disturbances

Journal of the Atmospheric Sciences
In real-world observations, long-lived tropical mesoscale convective disturbances (MCDs) often exhibit quasi-periodic variations. Previous studies suggested that these variations are mainly induced by external forcings. However, some studies showed evidence that tropical MCDs can display quasi-periodic behavior even without external forcings.

Response of Tropical Climate and Extreme Precipitation to Ocean Temperature in Convection‐Permitting Aquaplanet Simulations

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems
Tropical climate and weather systems are integral to the global hydrological cycle. Yet, their detected and projected trends are highly uncertain in part due to shortcomings of Earth system models.

A Parameterization for Cloud Organization and Propagation by Evaporation‐Driven Cold Pool Edges

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems
When the negatively buoyant air in the cloud downdrafts reaches the surface, it spreads out horizontally, producing cold pools. A cold pool can trigger new convective cells. However, when combined with the ambient vertical wind shear, it can also connect
