Inverse cascades of kinetic energy and thermal variance in three-dimensional horizontally extended turbulent convection
Inverse cascades of kinetic energy and thermal variance in the subset of vertically homogeneous modes in spectral space are found to cause a slow aggregation to a pair of convective supergranules that eventually fill the whole horizontally extended, three-dimensional, turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard conve...
