Convection is simulated numerically based on two-dimensional Boussinesq equations for a fluid layer with a specially chosen stratification such that the convective instability is much stronger in a thin subsurface sublayer than in the remaining part of the layer. The developing convective flow has a small-scale component superposed onto a basic large-scale roll flow.
