Climate as a 3D compressible gas under gravity (RealNSE).
A perfect gas fills a box, heated from below (hot floor) and cooled on top
(cold lid) under downward gravity g; the four side walls are periodic, the
floor/lid free-slip and impermeable. Buoyant hot gas rises, cold gas sinks,
and the deterministic equations organise this into three-dimensional
convection cells. Shown: a vertical temperature slice through the mid-plane
(blue cold → red hot). Vertical profiles (horizontal averages over the
whole layer vs height): temperature (red), density (cyan), turbulent
dissipation (yellow). rho_t + div m = 0,
m_t + div(m v) + grad p − nu lap v = rho g,
e_t + div(e v) + p div v = nu|grad v|²; p = gamma rho T, gamma = 1.
