TL;DR: In this article, the Nusselt number and the Reynolds number depend on the Rayleigh number Ra and the Prandtl number Pr, and the thicknesses of the thermal and the kinetic boundary layers scale with Ra and Pr.
Abstract: The progress in our understanding of several aspects of turbulent Rayleigh-Benard convection is reviewed. The focus is on the question of how the Nusselt number and the Reynolds number depend on the Rayleigh number Ra and the Prandtl number Pr, and on how the thicknesses of the thermal and the kinetic boundary layers scale with Ra and Pr. Non-Oberbeck-Boussinesq effects and the dynamics of the large scale convection roll are addressed as well. The review ends with a list of challenges for future research on the turbulent Rayleigh-Benard system.

TL;DR: Free convection between two interconnected reservoirs, due to density differences maintained by heat and salt transfer to the reservoirs, is shown to occur sometimes in two different stable regimes, and may possibly be analogous to certain features of the oseanic circulation as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: In this paper, a more rigorous derivation of the parameterization scheme for both deep cumulus convection and shallow convection has been given and a comparison between the calculated results and the observational data of Reed and Recker for the composite easterly wave show that they are in good agreement in the regions of low-level convergence.
Abstract: The parameterization scheme devised by the author in a previous study has been extended to include both deep cumulus convection and shallow convection and a more rigorous derivation is given. In this scheme, the amounts and the vertical distributions of the latent heat released and the sensible heat transported by the deep cumulus are expressed solely in terms of the temperature difference between the cloud and the environment and the convergence of moisture produced by the large-scale flow. It is shown that the often stressed heating by compression in the descending region is automatically taken into consideration in this formulation. A comparison between the calculated results and the observational data of Reed and Recker for the composite easterly wave show that they are in good agreement in the regions of low-level convergence. A separate scheme is devised from the energy equations to represent the transports of heat and moisture by the shallow convection maintained by the thermal boundary layer.
