This study contributes to the understanding of the relationship between air temperature and convection by analyzing the characteristics of rainfall at the storm and convective rain cell scales. High ...

An international team of astronomers has successfully imaged the surface of the geriatric star π1 Gruis, revealing enormous convection cells that cycle material between the interior and surface of the ...

Astronomers have for the first time directly observed granulation patterns on the surface of a star outside the Solar System -- an aging red giant. This remarkable new image reveals the convective ...

An international team of astronomers has produced the first detailed images of the surface of a giant star outside our solar system, revealing a nearly circular, dust-free atmosphere with complex ...

Rayleigh-Bénard convection, a classical paradigm in fluid dynamics, describes the buoyancy‐driven flow that occurs when a horizontal fluid layer is heated from below and cooled from above. The ...

Severe convective storms (SCSs) occur during all seasons in the United States. According to Aon, [1] severe convective storms have accounted for 70% of global insurance losses in recent years, and ...

For the first time, astronomers have watched gas boil and bubble on the surface of a distant star. Scientists observed the red giant star R Doradus with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter ...

Rayleigh-Bénard convection, a classical paradigm in fluid dynamics, refers to the thermally driven instability that arises when a fluid layer is heated from below and cooled from above. This ...
