Mechanical Forcing of Convection by Cold Pools: Collisions and Energy Scaling
Abstract Forced mechanical lifting through cold pool gust fronts can trigger new convection and, as previous work highlights, is enhanced when cold pools collide. However, as shown by conceptual models, the organization of the convective cloud field emerging from two versus three colliding cold pool...
