Scaling Laws for the Longitudinal Structure Function in the Atmospheric Surface Layer
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: caling laws for the longitudinal structure function in the atmospheric surface layer (ASL) are studied using dimensional analysis and matched asymptotics. Theoretical predictions show that the logarithmic scaling for the ...
A Large-Eddy Simulation Study of Scalar Dissimilarity in the Convective Atmospheric Boundary Layer
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: numerical study of the effect of entrainment fluxes at the top of the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) on dissimilarity between scalars within the mixed and surface layers is conducted. Simulation results clearly show that ...
Effects of Vegetation and Topography on the Boundary Layer Structure above the Amazon Forest
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Observational data from two field campaigns in the Amazon forest were used to study the vertical structure of turbulence above the forest. The analysis was performed using the reduced turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) budget ...
