| | 3 | === Purpose === |
| | 4 | With this example trade wind cumulus convection under steady-state conditions can be studied. |

| | 6 | === Description === |
| | 7 | The setup is based on the [http://www.knmi.nl/~siebesma/BLCWG/ GCSS] LES intercomparison case [http://www.knmi.nl/~siebesma/gcss/bomex.html BOMEX] ([ Siebesma et al. (2003)]). It describes shallow cumulus convection in the trade wind region over the ocean. During the simulation cumulus clouds form. The cloud cover is about 0.2. Results from BOMEX simulations with PALM were published in Heinze et al. (2012) and Riechelmann et al (2012). |
