Abstract: he behavior of the heat flux H with respect to the stability parameter (=z/L, where z is the height above the ground, and L is the Obukhov length) in the unstable atmospheric surface layer is analyzed within the framework ...

Abstract: n analysis in a plane of the stability parameters ? = z/L (where z is a height above the ground surface and L is the Obukhov length) and bulk Richardson number RiB is proposed to examine the applicability of Monin?Obukhov ...

Abstract: he turbulent data over a tropical region are utilized to analyze the observational behavior of the drag coefficient with respect to wind speed U and the stability parameter in convective conditions. The drag coefficient ...

Abstract: Five local K-closure formulations and a TKE closure were incorporated in a one-dimensional version of the Pielke?s model, and a comparative evaluation of the closure schemes was made for strong and weak wind stable boundary ...

Abstract: Extensive contrasts of land surface heterogeneities have a pivotal role in modulating boundary layer processes and consequently, the regional-scale dispersion of air pollutants. The Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) ...

Abstract: Turbulence in stable conditions is local, that is, it is locally defined by small eddies. A local formulation for σw based on a level 2 approximation of Mellor and Yamada (1974) is proposed. The proposed formulation is ...

Abstract: Short-range diffusion experiments conducted at Idaho National Engineering Laboratory in light-wind stable conditions have been simulated using a mathematical model that combines plume segment and Gaussian puff approaches. ...

Abstract: A three-dimensional mesoscale model was used to understand the meteorological conditions and the influence of the terrain on the local flow pattern during the Bhopal methyl isocyanate (MIC) gas leak. The study reveals that ...
