Discussion
Which depth distinguishes shallow from deep convection?
Answer: B
Shallow convection is confined to the lower troposphere and remains warm, while deep convection penetrates the freezing level, glaciates and produces the ice processes that generate heavy precipitation and lightning. The distinction is fundamental to parameterisation, since the two are usually handled by separate schemes. Shallow cumulus over the ocean can produce drizzle, so the last option is not quite right. The shared properties explain why these belong to one family, and the differences explain why more than one exists.
