Controls on boundary layer ventilation: Boundary layer processes and large‐scale dynamics
[1] Midlatitude cyclones are important contributors to boundary layer ventilation. However, it is uncertain how efficient such systems are at transporting pollutants out of the boundary layer, and variations between cyclones are unexplained. In this study 15 idealized baroclinic life cycles, with a passive tracer included, are simulated to identify the relative importance of two transport proce...
متن کاملSmall-Scale Morphology and Boundary Layer Processes: Measurement And Modeling
We want to look at the dynamics of the coherent vortex structures which are generated at the bottom of sea waves by 1) the instability of the laminar boundary layer and the development of turbulence, 2) the nonlinear interaction of the oscillatory boundary layer with a wavy bed of small amplitude and with a sloping bottom and 3) the separation of the boundary layer at the crests of 2-D ripples ...
متن کاملSmall-scale and large-scale intermittency in the nocturnal boundary layer and the residual layer
In high Reynolds-number turbulence, local scalar turbulence structure parameters, (C θ )r , local scalar variance dissipation rates, χr , and local energy dissipation rates, εr , vary randomly in time and space. This variability, commonly referred to as intermittency, is known to increase with decreasing r , where r is the linear dimension of the local averaging volume. Statistical relationship...
متن کاملOn the Arctic Boundary Layer On the Arctic Boundary Layer
The boundary layer is the part of the atmosphere that is in direct contact with the ground via turbulent motion. At mid-latitudes the boundary layer is usually one or a few kilometers deep, while in the Arctic it is much more shallow, typically a few hundred meters or less. The reason is that here the absolute temperature increases in the lowest kilometer, making the boundary layer semi-permane...
