Understanding Mesoscale Aggregation of Shallow Cumulus Convection Using Large‐Eddy Simulation
Abstract Marine shallow cumulus convection, often mixed with thin stratocumulus, is commonly aggregated into mesoscale patches. The mechanism and conditions supporting this aggregation are elucidated using 36 h large‐eddy simulations (LES) on a 128 × 128 km doubly periodic domain, using climatologic...
