“…(2) same functions of GWs but excited by the evaporative cooling of land precipitation (e.g., Hassim et al, 2016;Love et al, 2011;Vincent & Lane, 2016;Yokoi et al, 2017); (3) gravity (or density) currents, such as land breezes and cold outflows, which trigger new convection via convergence with ambient winds or cold outflows from other islands (e.g., Fujita et al, 2010;Houze et al, 1981;Mori et al, 2004;Wapler & Lane, 2012;Wu et al, 2009); and (4) influences of ambient winds, such as the advection effect (e.g., Ichikawa & Yasunari, 2006Yanase et al, 2017) and the vertical wind shear mechanism (e.g., LeMone et al, 1998;Yokoi et al, 2019). With these proposed mechanisms, we still do not know which one is the dominant process and how they vary with different islands in the MC.…”
