A '''convection cell''', also known as a '''[[Bénard cell]]''', is a characteristic fluid flow pattern in many convection systems. A rising body of fluid typically loses heat because it encounters a colder surface. In liquid, this occurs because it exchanges heat with colder liquid through direct exchange. In the example of the Earth's atmosphere, this occurs because it radiates heat. Because of this heat loss the fluid becomes denser than the fluid underneath it, which is still rising. Since it cannot descend through the rising fluid, it moves to one side. At some distance, its downward force overcomes the rising force beneath it, and the fluid begins to descend. As it descends, it warms again and the cycle repeats itself. Additionally, convection cells can arise due to density variations resulting from differences in the composition of electrolytes.<ref>{{cite journal |last1=Colli |first1=A.N. |last2=Bisang |first2=J.M. |title=Exploring the Impact of Concentration and Temperature Variations on Transient Natural Convection in Metal Electrodeposition: A Finite Volume Method Analysis |journal=Journal of the Electrochemical Society |date=2023 |volume=170 |issue=8 |pages=083505 |doi=10.1149/1945-7111/acef62 |bibcode=2023JElS..170h3505C |s2cid=260857287 |url=https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1149/1945-7111/acef62/meta}}</ref>
