Quasi-equilibrium Theory of Small Perturbations to Radiative-
Convective Equilibrium States• See “CalTech 2005” paper on web site• Free troposphere assumed to have moist
adiabatic lapse rate (s* does not vary with height
• Boundary layer quasi-equilibrium applies

Basis of statistical equilibrium physics
• Dates to Arakawa and Schubert (1974)• Analogy to continuum hypothesis:
Perturbations must have space scales >> intercloud spacing
• TKE consumption by convection ~ CAPE generation by large scale
• Numerical models on the verge of simulating clouds + large-scale waves
• We further assume convective criticality

Implications of the moist adiabatic lapse rate for the structure of
tropical disturbances• Approximate moist adiabatic condition as
that of constant saturation entropy:

Moisture-Convection Feedback
• Allow precipitation efficiency to depend on relative humidity
• Greater heating/upward motion in moister air upward motion moistens air
• Necessary for tropical cyclones• Appears to excite planetary Rossby waves
