Abstract: There is much evidence in the literature for the presence of mesoscale lateral meanders in the stable nighttime boundary layer. These meanders result in relatively high lateral turbulence intensities and diffusion rates ...

Abstract: Formulas for the variation with height of the buoyancy, volume, and water vapor fluxes from large wet cooling towers are derived. The simple formulas developed by Briggs are suggested for estimating plume rise, if the ...

Abstract: Hourly ground-level concentrations of SF6 at downwind distances ranging from 0.5 to 50 km were observed by the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) on dense monitoring networks around power plants at Kincaid, Illinois, ...

Abstract: The vertical eddy diffusivity coefficient K is hypothesized to depend upon the parameters that determine the energy spectrum of the vertical velocity fluctuations. Vertical velocity spectra from the lowest 320 m of the ...

Abstract: It is suggested that helical roll vortices in the atmosphere are responsible for the formation of the longitudinal sand dunes that cover over half of the area of the large deserts of the world. The dunes are aligned in the ...

Abstract: The linear relationship u?(t + τ) = u?(t)R(τ) + u?(t) is shown to be approximately valid for Lagrangian and Eulerian wind speed observations in the planetary boundary layer, where t represents any time and t + τ is some ...

Abstract: Observations of the relative diffusion of 13 sets of tetroon pairs in the mixed layer during convective conditions in eastern Tennessee are reported. The root-mean-square separation S is proportional to time t raised to a ...

Abstract: Extensive meteorological and air chemistry measurements were obtained along the Ventura and Santa Barbara county coastal areas in California during four 2?3 day case studies conducted during the September?October 1985 ...
