• Effect of convection on the summertime extratropical lower stratosphere (2004, background): “The idea is that strong updrafts associated with deep convection can carry significant amounts of ice to the UT/LS [e.g., Alcala and Dessler, 2002].”
• Detection of tropical deep convective clouds from AMSU-B water vapor channels measurements (2005, methodology): “This process is called convective overshooting [Alcala and Dessler, 2002].”
• Global distribution of convection penetrating the tropical tropopause (2005, methodology): “In addition to the 14 km used by Alcala and Dessler [2002], four different reference heights are defined and used here: level of NCEP reanalysis tropopause (hereinafter referred to as Ztrop), level of potential temperature q equal to 380 K (hereinafter referred to as Z380K) calculated from NCEP soun”
