description abstractThe mathematical formulation of Paulson?s ?m(Z/L) that applies to the unstable atmospheric boundary layer has been simplified. The authors propose that ?m(Z/L) = a(?Z/L)b, where the coefficients a and b have been determined. Based on data provided in Panofsky and Dutton, a = 1.0496 and b = 0.4591. The correlation coefficient between ?m(Z/L) and (?Z/L) is 0.99, so this equation can directly account for (0.99)2 = 98% of the variation in ?m(Z/L). Comparisons between Paulson?s and this proposed formula show that the difference between the two is negligible for overwater applications.
