Buoyancy-Driven Entrainment in Dry Thermals
Brett McKim, Nadir Jeevanjee, Daniel Lecoanet
\citet{turner1957} proposed that dry thermals entrain because of buoyancy (via a constraint which requires an increase in the radius ). This however, runs counter to the scaling…
Buoyant Motion of a Turbulent Thermal
Nathaniel Tarshish, Nadir Jeevanjee, Daniel Lecoanet
By introducing an equivalence between magnetostatics and the equations governing buoyant motion, we derive analytical expressions for the acceleration of isolated density anomalies…
Entrainment in Resolved, Dry Thermals
Daniel Lecoanet, Nadir Jeevanjee
Entrainment in cumulus convection remains ill-understood and difficult to quantify. For instance, entrainment is widely believed to be a fundamentally turbulent process, even thoug…
The physics of climate change: simple models in climate science
Nadir Jeevanjee
There is a perception that climate science can only be approached with complex computer simulations. But working climate scientists often use simple models to understand their simu…
Invariant Radiative Cooling and Mean Precipitation Change
Nadir Jeevanjee, David M. Romps
We show that radiative cooling profiles, when described in temperature coordinates, are insensitive to surface temperature . We argue this theoretically as well as confirm it…
