| description abstract | A tethersonde observational program was conducted for eight days during February and March 1989 at Pune (18°32?N, 73°51?E, 559 m MSL), India, during daytime for the study of mixed-layer evolution. A surface- based nocturnal inversion of intensity 8?10 K (100 m)?1 was observed on most of the days. It takes about 2 h after sunrise for this inversion to start eroding and 4?5 h for complete erosion. Profiles of potential temperature, mixing ratio, and wind are discussed. Using Tennekes and Driedonks? convective boundary-layer model an average sensible heat flux of 129 W m?2 is estimated during morning hours, which is comparable to the flux value obtained by an earlier study using an eddy correlation technique at a nearby site during March and April. | |
