Abstract
The bubble theory of convection, which has received renewed attention in recent years, came into existance because glider pilots felt that it gave the best explanation of their soaring experiences and because cumulus towers often looked like ascending buoyant bubbles. In order to shed new light on the subject a simple convection experiment in the laboratory was set up.
