Rough surfaces are ubiquitous in nature. Near-surface processes both encounter and create
surface roughness. Recent advances in surveying have improved the resolution, extent and …

Atmosphere–surface exchange represents one mechanism by which atmospheric particle
mass and number size distributions are modified. Deposition velocities (vd) exhibit a …

Twenty years have passed since the first German-language edition of this book was
published. Subsequently, parallel German-and English-language editions were produced in …

ABSTRACT A combination of satellite imagery, meteorological station data, and the
NCEP/NCAR reanalysis has been used to explore the spatial and temporal evolution of the …

The development of new wind energy projects requires a thorough analysis of land use
issues and constraints. At ETH Zurich, an analytical approach has been developed using a …

Der für die angewandte Meteorologie relevante Band 1B enthält die in Tabelle 8.2
angegebenen VDI/DIN-Richtlinien, die überwiegend dem Bereich Ausbreitung von …

Horizontal heterogeneity can significantly affect the flux data quality at monitoring sites in
complex terrain. In heterogeneous conditions, the adoption of the eddy-covariance …

The increased resolution of numerical weather prediction models allows nowadays
addressing more realistically urban meteorology and air pollution processes. This has …

Land use and cover change (LUCC) is one of the key variables dominating land–
atmosphere interactions and strongly affects the Earth's eco-environments by altering …

The roughness length, z 0 u, and displacement height, d 0 u, characterise the resistance
exerted by the roughness elements on turbulent flows and provide a conventional boundary …
