A Radiation Model of the Polluted Atmospheric Boundary Layer
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A radiation model is constructed as part of a general prediction system of the polluted atmospheric boundary layer assumed to extend to a height of 3 km. The radiative treatment comprises the solar and infrared spectrum, ...
Infrared Flux Divergence Calculations with Newly Constructed Radiation Tables
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper presents some sample computations of infrared radiative flux divergence due to atmospheric water vapor. These calculations are based upon newly constructed radiation tables which were obtained from the radiometersonde ...
The Effect of Atmospheric Haze on Infrared Radiative Cooling Rates
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The radiative flux divergence is computed for the lower few centimeters of the atmosphere assuming a water vapor-haze mixture. Some additional computations are made for higher altitudes also. The haze model, based on ...
Application of a Radiative–Conductive Model to the Simulation of Nocturnal Temperature Changes over Different Soil Types
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: For a calm night, nocturnal temperature profiles pertaining to various soil types are computed for the entire boundary layer. The mathematical analysis is based upon a numerical solution of the equations of motion, heat ...
Implicit Differencing of Predictive Equations of the Boundary Layer
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Crank-Nicholson method may not give useful results in detailed prediction of the thermal planetary boundary layer unless tune steps on the order of 10 s are used. In similar problems, lower order time differencing ...
One-Dimensional Numerical Simulation of the Effects of Air Pollution on the Planetary Boundary Layer
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A dynamic-numerical model is utilized to study the impact of air pollution on the temperature and wind distributions of the planetary boundary layer. The mathematical model uses a rather complete radiative treatment which ...
