{"keyword":["Geochemistry and Petrology","Geophysics"],"_id":"9139","abstract":[{"text":"Organized convection in the tropics occurs across a range of spatial and temporal scales and strongly influences cloud cover and humidity. One mode of organization found is “self-aggregation,” in which moist convection spontaneously organizes into one or several isolated clusters despite spatially homogeneous boundary conditions and forcing. Self-aggregation is driven by interactions between clouds, moisture, radiation, surface fluxes, and circulation, and occurs in a wide variety of idealized simulations of radiative–convective equilibrium. Here we provide a review of convective self-aggregation in numerical simulations, including its character, causes, and effects. We describe the evolution of self-aggregation including its time and length scales and the physical mechanisms leading to its triggering and maintenance, and we also discuss possible links to climate and climate change.","lang":"eng"}],"status":"public","user_id":"8b945eb4-e2f2-11eb-945a-df72226e66a9","extern":"1","type":"journal_article","publication":"Surveys in Geophysics","author":[{"first_name":"Allison A.","last_name":"Wing","full_name":"Wing, Allison A."},{"first_name":"Kerry","last_name":"Emanuel","full_name":"Emanuel, Kerry"},{"first_name":"Christopher E.","full_name":"Holloway, Christopher E.","last_name":"Holloway"},{"orcid":"0000-0001-5836-5350","id":"f978ccb0-3f7f-11eb-b193-b0e2bd13182b","last_name":"Muller","full_name":"Muller, Caroline J","first_name":"Caroline J"}],"publisher":"Springer Nature","day":"01","page":"1173-1197","issue":"6","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"title":"Convective self-aggregation in numerical simulations: A review","year":"2017","volume":38,"publication_identifier":{"issn":["0169-3298","1573-0956"]},"intvolume":"        38","date_created":"2021-02-15T14:20:56Z","date_updated":"2022-01-24T12:42:36Z","article_processing_charge":"No","citation":{"short":"A.A.
