About: Convective self-aggregation

An Entity of Type: Thing, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org:8891

Convective self-aggregation is an atmospheric phenomenon that occurs under idealized conditions such as the tropical ocean where the sea surface temperature is approximately constant. During convective self-aggregation a homogenous atmosphere transition into one region that is very dry and cloud-free and one region with heavy rain and thunderstorm. Convective self-aggregation is, therefore, important in the formation of tropical cyclones, and data indicate that cold pools play a major role in starting it.
