空间相关分析已应用于纳米布降雨，试图确定该地区局部风暴空间组织的可能模式。解释了上述技术对于只有稀疏雨量计网络的区域的实用性。结果表明，对流风暴并不是随机分散在空间中的，而是倾向于在彼此之间优选的距离处形成，大约 40-50 公里和 80-100 公里，风暴之间没有优选的位置或方向。贝纳德环流被认为可能推断出太空中对流风暴的组织。
Spatial correlation analysis has been applied to Namib rainfall, in an attempt to identify possible patterns of the spatial organization of localized storms in this area. The utility of the above technique for areas with only sparse raingauge networks is explained. Results indicate that convective storms are not randomly scattered in space but, tend to form at preferred distances from each other, around 40-50 and 80-100 km, with no preferred locations of, or directions between, storms. Benard cells are mentioned as possibly imposing the inferred organization of convective storms in space.
