The role of 1-D and 3-D radiative heating in the organization of shallow cumulus convection and the formation of cloud streets
The formation of shallow cumulus cloud streets was historically attributed primarily to dynamics. Here, we focus on the interaction between radiatively induced surface heterogeneities and the resulting patterns in the flow. Our results suggest that solar radiative heating has the potential to...
