A Relationship of the Reynolds Stress to Local Shear and Heat Fluxes in the Planetary Boundary Layer
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The steady Reynolds stress and turbulent energy equations for steady, horizontally homogeneous mean flow are used to relate the Reynolds stress u?w? to the mean wind shear and heat fluxes in the planetary boundary layer. ...
A Numerical Study of the Influence of Advective Accelerations in an Idealized, Low-Latitude, Planetary Boundary Layer
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Steady, longitudinally invariant, barotropic, boundary layer flow is numerically studied at low latitudes where advective accelerations may he large and the Coriolis parameter is small. Flow is generated by specifying the ...
A Numerical Study of Coupling Between the Boundary Layer and Free Atmosphere in an Accelerated Low-Latitude Flow
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The influence of advective accelerations in the low-latitude boundary layer and coupling between this boundary layer and the free atmosphere are numerically examined for steady longitudinally invariant flow. Pressure ...
A Statistical Study of Dependence of Hailstorm Severity on Environmental Conditions
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Rawinsonde observations taken during the National Hail Research Experiment are analyzed by multiple-linear regression techniques to study the influence of environmental factors on hailstorm severity. The latter is inferred ...
