Abstract: A simple empirical model is developed based on physical and dimensional considerations to predict the height of air mass modification due to a change in surface characteristics. Most of the input parameters can be obtained ...

Abstract: Mean and fluctuating winds wore measured within the atmospheric surface layer at three locations across Long Island during the landfall of Hurricane Belle on 9 August 19176. An order of magnitude increase in wind shear was ...

Abstract: A three-dimensional hot-film probe, a Vector Vane, and an Aerovane were used to measure the mean wind speed and turbulence structure in the atmospheric surface layer at a location on the south shore of Long Island. A ...

Abstract: A research program is in progress at Brookhaven National Laboratory to determine the nature of atmospheric diffusion from a representative oceanic site, to relate observed diffusion patterns to meteorological and oceanographic ...
