• A global cloud‐resolving simulation: Preliminary results from an aqua planet experiment (2005, background): “For example, Grabowski and Moncrieff [2001, 2002] investigated the longitudinal large-scale organization of convection; Liu and Moncrieff [2004] discussed the formation of the intertropical convergence zone (ITCZ).”
• Convective self‐aggregation, cold pools, and domain size (2013, result): “[2] Organized convection, in which the spatial pattern of convection is fixed and persistent over time, has been found in both observations and numerical studies [Houze and Betts, 1981; Grabowski and Moncrieff, 2001; Stephens et al., 2008] and at a wide range of scales.”

• Convective Self-Aggregation in Numerical Simulations: A Review (2017, background): “Aggregation has been found to occur in simulations with two-dimensional cloud resolving models (Held et al, 1993; Grabowski and Moncrie ↵ , 2001, 2002; Stephens et al, 2008), small-domain square three-dimensional cloud resolving models (Tompkins and Craig, 1998; Bretherton et al, 2005;…”

• Self‐aggregation of convection in long channel geometry (2014, unknown): “Grabowski and Moncrieff (2001) also found self-aggregation in a much larger (20 000 km) 2D domain, at multiple scales and into multiple clusters.”

• Convectively coupled equatorial waves (2009, background): “[102] Many CRMs spontaneously develop CCEWs and, in particular, convectively coupled gravity waves [e.g., Grabowski and Moncrieff, 2001; Peters and Bretherton, 2006; Tulich et al., 2007] or Kelvin waves when rotation is included [e.g., Kuang et al., 2005; Shutts, 2006].”
• Analytic representation of the large-scale organization of tropical convection (2004, methodology): “This squall line–like mechanism explains why the westward-tilted mesoscale organization generates easterly large-scale flow in the lower troposphere and westerly large-scale flow in the upper troposphere (e.g., Grabowski and Moncrieff 2001, 2002; G01).”
