On the Transient Behavior of Asai’s Model of Moist Convection
I The transient behavior of the simple model of moist convection devised by Asai is studied. It is shown that the initial behavior of convective disturbances depends strongly upon the geometry of the disturbance, its initial buoyancy, and dissipative mechanisms. Final approach to a steady convective cell is dependent upon the relative importance of entrainment of heat and momentum. These conclu...
متن کاملBuoyancy statistics in moist turbulent Rayleigh–Bénard convection
We study shallow moist Rayleigh–Bénard convection in the Boussinesq approximation in three-dimensional direct numerical simulations. The thermodynamics of phase changes is approximated by a piecewise linear equation of state close to the phase boundary. The impact of phase changes on the turbulent fluctuations and the transfer of buoyancy through the layer is discussed as a function of the Rayl...
متن کاملAtmospheric Moist Convection
■ Abstract Various forms of atmospheric moist convection are reviewed through a consideration of three prevalent regimes: stratocumulus; trade-wind; and deep, precipitating, maritime convection. These regimes are chosen because they are structural components of the general circulation of the atmosphere and because they highlight distinguishing features of this polymorphous phenomenon. In partic...

15 صفحه اولMoist Convection and the Thermal Stratification of the Extratropical Troposphere
Simulations with an aquaplanet general circulation model show that sensible and latent heat transport by large-scale eddies influences the extratropical thermal stratification over a wide range of climates, even in relatively warm climates with small meridional surface temperature gradients. Variations of the lapse rate toward which the parameterized moist convection in the model relaxes atmosp...
