- Basic physical considerations and detailed numerical simulations predict a dramatic increase in the sizes of convection cells during late phases of stellar evolution. The recent progress in high-angular-resolution techniques has made it possible to observe surface structures on several nearby giants and supergiants for a wide range of wavelengths. Such observations provide much-needed checkpoints for convection theory, in addition to the detailed comparisons of models and observations for the sun. In this talk I will give an overview of current 3D convection models for different types of stars and discuss related observable phenomena.
