Parameterization of convective transport in the boundary layer and its impact on the representation of the diurnal cycle of wind and dust emissions
We investigate how the representation of the boundary layer in a climate model impacts the representation of the near-surface wind and dust emission, with a focus on the Sahel/Sahara region. We show that the combination of vertical turbulent diffusion with a representation of the thermal cells o...
