Moist Orographic Convection: Physical Mechanisms and Links to Surface-Exchange Processes
This paper reviews the current understanding of moist orographic convection and its regulation by surface-exchange processes. Such convection tends to develop when and where moist instability coincides with sufficient terrain-induced ascent to locally overcome convective inhibition. The terrain-indu...
