Revisiting the Entrainment Relationship of Convective Plumes: A Perspective From Global Observations

Abstract Entrainment is an important process affecting convective transport and is a key parameter in convection modeling. For over half a century, an inverse relationship between entrainment rate (λ) and convective core size (R) has been used in modeling convective clouds. This short letter revisit...
