Most cumulus parametrizations today make use of a simple conceptual model of convection, called the mass-flux approach. This approach depicts convection as an ensemble of updrafts and downdrafts occurring within a model grid-box. The aim of this study is to determine convective m

Open boundary conditions were developed for atmospheric large-eddy simulation (LES) models and implemented into the Dutch Atmospheric Large-Eddy Simulation model. The implementation was tested in a “Big Brother”-like setup, in which the simulation with open boundary conditions wa

Convective cloud parameterization
Evaluation of the mass-flux approach through observations
In the context of climate modelling, convective clouds in tropical regions play a major role in determining the climate sensitivity. The vertical transport of mass and energy associated with this type of clouds is often represented with so called mass-flux parameterization scheme
