The height of the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) or the mixing height (MH) is a
fundamental parameter characterising the structure of the lower troposphere. Two basic …

Atmospheric t urbulence spans a huge range of scales. Turbulent eddies are important
elements in the global circulation, in synoptic weather systems, in regional circulations, in …

A new boundary layer turbulent mixing scheme has been developed for use in the UKMO
weather forecasting and climate prediction models. This includes a representation of …

A lake model intended for use as a lake parameterization module in numerical weather
prediction (also in climate modelling and other environmental applications) is developed …

A slab model is proposed for developing the height of the mixed layer capped by stable air
aloft. The model equations are closed by relating the consumption of energy (potential and …

The evolution of the mixed layer during a clear day can be described with a slab model. The
model equations have to be closed by a parameterization of the turbulent kinetic energy …

A one-dimensional numerical model, capable of simulating surface temperature and heat
flux, is described in terms of the effective atmospheric and terrain variables. The two model …

A multiple mixed layer model of the cloud‐topped boundary layer is developed to investigate
the diurnal variation of stratocumulus. A simple representation of the microphysical …

The parameterization of penetrative convection and other cases of turbulent entrainment by
the atmospheric boundary layer is reviewed in this paper. The conservation equations for a …

We give a detailed review of developments in atmospheric acoustics of the last decade.
These developments include new ways to use refractive effects, studies of phase and …
