Fast and slow microphysics regimes in a minimalist model of cloudy Rayleigh-Bénard convection
A minimalist model of microphysical properties in cloudy Rayleigh-Bénard convection is developed based on mass and number balances for cloud droplets growing by vapor condensation. The model is relevant to a turbulent mixed-layer in which a steady forcing of supersaturation can be defined, e.g., a m...
