Urban boundary-layer height determination from lidar measurements over the paris area.
The Paris area is strongly urbanized and is exposed to atmospheric pollution events. To understand the chemical and physical processes that are taking place in this area it is necessary to describe correctly the atmospheric boundary-layer (ABL) dynamics and the ABL height evolution. During the winter of 1994-1995, within the framework of the Etude de la Couche Limite Atmosphérique en Agglomérat...
متن کاملComparing population distributions from bin-aggregated sample data: An application to historical height data from France.
We develop a methodology to estimate underlying (continuous) population distributions from bin-aggregated sample data through the estimation of the parameters of mixtures of distributions that allow for maximal parametric flexibility. The statistical approach we develop enables comparisons of the full distributions of height data from potential army conscripts across France's 88 departments for...
متن کاملUrban–rural contrasts in mixing height and cloudiness over Nashville in 1999
[1] Strong contrasts in daytime mixing height (boundary layer [BL] height or zi) between urban and rural areas were observed during the 1999 Nashville Summer Intensive field campaign of the Southern Oxidants Study. On occasion, the urban mixing height was as much as 45% (700 m) higher than that over the rural areas. The difference was quite persistent, showing strongly in statistical comparison...

The urban boundary layer (UBL), in comparison with ‘rural’ homogeneous PBLs, is characterised by greatly enhanced mixing, resulting from both the large surface roughness and increased surface heating, and by horizontal inhomogeneity of the mixing height (MH) and other meteorological fields due to variations in surface roughness and heating from rural to central city areas. So, it is reasonable ...
متن کاملStatistical Analysis of Two-lane Roundabout Data for Traffic Control Decision-Making in an Urban Area
Researches using existing statistics and data collected from the area of study help officials at decision-making, to improve the region's problems, like the problem of the high rate of accidents in the region, despite the low volume of daily service. The uses of roundabouts in many parts of the world have many advantages over intersections, amongst them are increased safety and capacity and red...
