Toward a mode reduction strategy in shallow moist convection

The insufficient parameterization of low clouds which are caused by shallow convection remains one of the biggest sources of uncertainty in large-scale models of global atmospheric motion. One way to overcome this lack of understanding is to develop Boussinesq models of moist convection with simplif...
