متن کاملUsing Temperature Fluctuation Measurements to Estimate Meteorological Inputs for Modelling Dispersion During Convective Conditions in Urban Areas
We examine the performance of several methods to estimate meteorological 1 inputs for modelling dispersion in urban areas during convective conditions. Sensible heat 2 flux, surface friction velocity and turbulent velocities are estimated from measurements of 3 mean wind speed and the standard deviation of temperature fluctuations at a single level on a 4 tower at two suburban sites and at one ...
