Control of Convection in High‐Resolution Simulations of Tropical Cyclogenesis

Abstract Three idealized high‐resolution simulations of tropical storm formation from a weak vortex are analyzed. The three simulations include a case using warm rain microphysics, a similar case in which surface friction is omitted, and a case in which ice microphysics is used. The goal is to under...
