This phenomenon has been called self-aggregation, and it results in a state where a moist cloudy region with intense deep convective storms is surrounded by extremely dry subsiding air devoid of deep clouds. We review here the main findings from theoretical work and idealized models of this phenomenon, highlighting the physical processes believed to play a key role in convective self-aggregation. We also review the growing literature on the importance and implications of this phenomenon for the tropical atmosphere, notably, for the hydrological cycle and for precipitation extremes, in our current and in a warming climate."}],"date_published":"2022-01-01T00:00:00Z","publication_status":"published","month":"01","article_processing_charge":"No","date_updated":"2023-10-03T10:51:07Z","type":"journal_article","day":"01","title":"Spontaneous aggregation of convective storms","quality_controlled":"1","status":"public","publisher":"Annual Reviews","scopus_import":"1","oa_version":"Published Version","oa":1,"date_created":"2022-01-23T23:01:29Z","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87"}
