Turbulent convection flows in nature are often found organized in a hierarchy of patterns/structures. A prominent example is convection at the surface of the Sun. In my talk I will discuss our recent numerical simulations which want to address this point within simplified models. In detail, we discuss the role of boundary conditions and rotation next to cases at very low Prandtl number. Finally, we present our recent studies in fully compressible turbulence which again is relevant for convection near the solar surface.
