The Diurnal cycle of deep convection session will be co-organized by the UPDRAFT project

in collaboration with the ParaChute project.

The session invites contributions addressing the diurnal cycle of deep convection, the unified representation of shallow and deep convection, the shallow-to-deep transition, and the initiation mechanisms of deep convection. Particular emphasis is placed on advancing the unified parameterization of shallow and deep convection and improving the theoretical and modelling understanding of the processes governing the shallow-to-deep transition. We welcome both oral and poster presentations employing a broad range of methodologies, including idealized theoretical modelling, large-eddy and convection-permitting simulations, machine learning approaches, as well as observational analyses and field campaign data.
