Discussion
Which term describes the mixing of environmental air into a rising plume?
Answer: A
Entrainment brings environmental air into the updraught, diluting its buoyancy and its moisture, while detrainment expels cloudy air outward near the top. The two together determine the vertical profile of mass flux in a convective plume. Getting the entrainment rate right is one of the central difficulties of convective parameterisation and a persistent source of model error.
