Subsiding shells and the distribution of up- and downdraughts in warm cumulus clouds over land
<p>The mass flux of air lifted within the updraughts (updraft in American English) of shallow convection is usually thought to be compensated outside the cloud through either large-scale subsidence or stronger downdraughts in a thin shell surrounding the cloud. Subsiding shells were postulated...
