The Universality of the Normalized Vertical Velocity Variance in Contrast to the Horizontal Velocity Variance in the Convective Boundary Layer
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe vertical turbulent velocity variance normalized by the convective velocity squared as a function of the boundary layer depth?normalized height [i.e., ] in the convective boundary layer (CBL) over a homogeneous ...
Scale-Similarity Subgrid-Scale Turbulence Closure for Supercell Simulations at Kilometer-Scale Resolutions: Comparison against a Large-Eddy Simulation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Reexamining the Gradient and Countergradient Representation of the Local and Nonlocal Heat Fluxes in the Convective Boundary Layer
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractTurbulent mixing in the daytime convective boundary layer (CBL) is carried out by organized nonlocal updrafts and smaller local eddies. In the upper mixed layer of the CBL, heat fluxes associated with nonlocal ...
