Parameters for the Collapse of Turbulence in the Stratified Plane Couette Flow
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractWe perform direct numerical simulation of the Couette flow as a model for the stable boundary layer. The flow evolution is investigated for combinations of the (bulk) Reynolds number and the imposed surface buoyancy ...
Shear Capacity as Prognostic for Nocturnal Boundary Layer Regimes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ield observations and theoretical analysis are used to investigate the appearance of different nocturnal boundary layer regimes. Recent theoretical findings predict the appearance of two different regimes: the continuously ...
Near-Surface Temperature Inversion Growth Rate during the Onset of the Stable Boundary Layer
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThis study aims to find the typical growth rate of the temperature inversion during the onset of the stable boundary layer around sunset. The sunset transition is a very challenging period for numerical weather ...
