Eddy geopotential height (shading, ﹩{\rm{m}}﹩) and eddy components of horizontal wind vectors ﹩250\,\mathrm{hPa}﹩ and air temperature (contours, ﹩{\rm{K}}﹩) at ﹩700\,\mathrm{hPa}﹩ in the (left column) Trappist-1e case and (right column) Proxima b case in (a) and (b) MassFlux, (c) and (d) Adjust, and (e) and (f) NoCnvPm simulations. Here, the eddy component is taken as the deviation from the temporal and zonal mean.
