Regional modelling of tracer transport by tropical convection – Part 1: Sensitivity to convection parameterization

The general objective of this series of papers is to evaluate long duration limited area simulations with idealised tracers as a tool to assess tracer transport in chemistry-transport models (CTMs). In this first paper, we analyse the results of six simulations using different convection closures an...
