Interacting Convection Zones
L. J. Silvers, M. R. E. Proctor
TL;DR
This paper uses simulations to study how two convective layers interact across a separation, revealing that they remain connected through overshooting plumes even when separated by multiple pressure scale heights.
Contribution
It demonstrates that convective layers can stay connected via overshooting plumes despite significant separation, providing new insights into convective interactions.
Findings
Convective layers remain connected through overshooting plumes.
Interaction persists even with several pressure scale heights separation.
Simulation results support the robustness of convective coupling.
Abstract
We present results from simulations to examine how the separation between two convectively unstable layers affect their interaction. We show that two convectively unstable layers remain connected via the overshooting plumes even when they are separated by several pressure scale heights.
