Over the last 100 years, boundary layer meteorology grew from the subject of mostly near-
surface observations to a field encompassing diverse atmospheric boundary layers (ABLs) …

Physical processes represented by the Monin–Obukhov bulk formula for momentum are
investigated with field observations. We discuss important differences between turbulent …

Regime Transitions in Near-Surface Temperature Inversions: A Conceptual Model in: Journal of
the Atmospheric Sciences Volume 74 Issue 4 (2017) Jump to Content Jump to Main Navigation …

Surface processes in high latitudes play an important role in global climate and thus
understanding the physics of these systems is critical for improving climate projections. The …

Investigation of meteorological measurements along a 45 m tower at Dome C on the high
East Antarctic Plateau revealed two distinct stable boundary layer (SBL) regimes at this …

The atmospheric boundary layer is particularly challenging to model in conditions of stable
stratification, which can be associated with intermittent or unsteady turbulence. We develop …

This study focused on planetary boundary layer (PBL) growth in winter under the influence
of the westerlies over the Rongbuk Valley on the north side of the central Himalayas. Two …

In very stable boundary layers (VSBL), a “cocktail” of submeso motions routinely result in
elevated mean wind speed maxima above the ground, acting as a new source of turbulence …

Intermittent transitions between turbulent and nonturbulent states are ubiquitous in the
stable atmospheric surface layer (ASL). Data from two field experiments in Utqiaġvik, Alaska …

This study presents the development of a so‐called Turbulent Kinetic Energy (TKE)‐l, or TKE‐
l, parameterization of the diffusion coefficients for the representation of turbulent diffusion in …
