Toward a Stochastic Relaxation for the Quasi‐Equilibrium Theory of Cumulus Parameterization: Multicloud Instability, Multiple Equilibria, and Chaotic Dynamics
Abstract The representation of clouds and organized tropical convection remains one of the biggest sources of uncertainties in climate and long‐term weather prediction models. Some of the most common cumulus parameterization schemes, namely, mass‐flux schemes, rely on the quasi‐equilibrium (QE) clos...
