The Relationship Between Convective Clustering and Mean Tropical Climate in Aquaplanet Simulations

Abstract Convective clustering, the spatial organization of tropical deep convection, can manifest itself in two ways: through a decrease in the total area covered by convection and/or through a decrease in the number of convective areas. Much of our current understanding of convective clustering co...
