Atmospheric boundary layers with weak stratification are relatively well described by
similarity theory and numerical models for stationary horizontally homogeneous conditions …

Flow in a stably stratified environment is characterized by anisotropic and intermittent
turbulence and wavelike motions of varying amplitudes and periods. Understanding …

Measurements of atmospheric turbulence made over the Arctic pack ice during the Surface
Heat Budget of the Arctic Ocean experiment (SHEBA) are used to determine the limits of …

The seasonal dependence of Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model surface
temperature biases and sensitivity to planetary boundary layer (PBL) schemes are jointly …

Abstract The critical Richardson number, Ric, is used in studies of stably stratified turbulence
as a measure of flow laminarization. The accepted range of Ric is between 0.2 and 1. A …

Over the last 100 years, boundary layer meteorology grew from the subject of mostly near-
surface observations to a field encompassing diverse atmospheric boundary layers (ABLs) …

Measurements of atmospheric turbulence made during the Surface Heat Budget of the Arctic
Ocean Experiment (SHEBA) are used to examine the profile stability functions of momentum …

Data collected during the SHEBA and CASES-99 field programs are employed to examine
the flux–gradient relationship for wind speed and temperature in the stably stratified …

Turbulence measurements for very stable conditions near the surface are contrasted among
three sites: a high altitude basin during winter with grass or snow-covered grass, a broad …

The relationship of turbulence quantities to mean flow quantities, such as the Richardson
number, degenerates substantially for strong stability, at least in those studies that do not …
