Basics of Clouds and Convection by Vishal Dixit

Explore the fundamental concepts of clouds and convection in this comprehensive lecture from the Mathematical Modeling of Climate, Ocean, and Atmosphere Processes program. Delve into the physics behind cloud formation and convective processes, essential components of atmospheric dynamics. Gain insights into how these phenomena influence weather patterns and climate systems. Designed for students with varying levels of expertise, from final year undergraduates to Masters students, this talk requires no prior background in climate-atmosphere-ocean dynamics. Part of a broader pedagogical program, this lecture contributes to a deeper understanding of fluid dynamics in the atmosphere and ocean, and its impact on climate-scale processes.
