Inferences from Simple Models of Slow, Convectively Coupled Processes

A framework for conceptual understanding of slow, convectively coupled disturbances is developed and applied to several canonical tropical problems, including the water vapor content of an atmosphere in radiative-convective equilibrium, the relationship between convective precipitation and column wa...
