The exchange of heat, momentum, and mass in the atmosphere over mountainous terrain is
controlled by synoptic-scale dynamics, thermally driven mesoscale circulations, and …

Coupling of the earth's surface with the atmosphere is achieved through an exchange of
momentum, energy, and mass in the atmospheric boundary layer. In mountainous terrain …

We review developments in the field of boundary-layer flow over complex topography,
focussing on the period from 1970 to the present day. The review follows two parallel …

Monin-Obukhov similarity theory (MOST) forms the basis for parametrizations of turbulent
exchange in virtually all numerical models of atmospheric flows. Yet, its limitations to flat and …

Pollutant dispersion processes over complex terrain are much more complicated than over
flat areas, as they are affected by atmospheric interactions with the orography at different …

Turbulence data from the CASES‐99 field experiment, over comparatively horizontally
homogeneous and flat terrain, are separated based on the anisotropy of the Reynolds stress …

The correct simulation of the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) is crucial for reliable
weather forecasts in truly complex terrain. However, common assumptions for model …

Atmospheric turbulence measurements made at the US Army Corps of Engineers Field
Research Facility (FRF) located on the Atlantic coast near the town of Duck, North Carolina …

A long-standing problem in micrometeorology is that at most eddy covariance sites around
the world, the sum of the sensible and latent heat flux measurements is less than the …

The influence of drifting and blowing snow on surface mass and energy exchange is difficult
to quantify due to limitations in both measurements and models, but is still potentially very …
