Description
The dataset contains trajectories of 16 deep convective cloud air parcels simulated with MIMICA code based on soundings retrieved over Manaus (Latitude: -3.1, Longitude: -60.0) during the wet season from April 1 until April 14, 2020 at 00 and 12 UTC.
Parcel data contains values for coordinate (X, Y, Z), velocity components (U, V, W), potential temperature (PTIL), total water content (QT), water vapor (QV), condensate density (QC), precipitation density (QR), net precipitation change (QR_FLUX), relative humidity (RH), buoyancy (BUOY), temperature (T), pressure (P), resolved TKE (KRES), SGS TKE (SGS_TKE), turbulent diffusion (TDIFF) are provided for each parcel at every time step of the simulation.
