Episodic mixing and buoyancy-sorting representations of shallow cumulus convection
This dissertation combines a diagnostic study, a numerical simulation and a theory of cumulus mixing to investigate shallow cumulus convection and its representation in large-scale models. The objective is to facilitate the development of a cumulus parameterization scheme and also to improve our und...
