Flow in a stably stratified environment is characterized by anisotropic and intermittent
turbulence and wavelike motions of varying amplitudes and periods. Understanding …

First-order turbulence closure schemes continue to be work-horse models for weather and
climate simulations. The turbulent Prandtl number, which represents the dissimilarity …

The collapse of turbulence in the nocturnal boundary layer is studied by means of a simple
bulk model that describes the basic physical interactions in the surface energy balance. It is …

Comparisons between single-column (SCM) simulations with the total energy–mass flux
