Physical Mechanisms Controlling the Offshore Propagation of Convection in the Tropics: 1. Flat Island
Abstract An idealized convection‐permitting simulation is performed to investigate the physical mechanisms responsible for the nighttime offshore propagation of convection around tropical islands. An idealized island is placed in the middle of a long, nonrotating channel oceanic domain with constant...
