The atmospheric boundary layer mediates the exchange of energy, matter, and momentum
between the land surface and the free troposphere, integrating a range of physical …

This paper reviews results from two field studies of the nocturnal stable atmospheric
boundary layer (SBL) over the Great Plains of the United States. Data from a scanning …

Abstract The recent International Panel on Climate Change report predicts the highly
urbanized Northeastern US to be at high risk to heat waves. Since urban residents and …

An investigation of nocturnal intermittent turbulence during the Cooperative Atmosphere–
Surface Exchange Study in 1999 (CASES-99) revealed three turbulence regimes at each …

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 concept of boundary layer mixing height for meteorology and air quality applications
using lidar data is reviewed, and new algorithms for estimation of mixing heights from …

After sunset, a stable boundary layer (SBL) develops close to the ground, while the upper
region of the daytime mixed layer becomes the residual layer (RL). Mixing between the SBL …

The authors investigate atmospheric internal gravity waves (IGWs): their generation and
induction of global intermittent turbulence in the nocturnal stable atmospheric boundary …

Heavy particulate pollution events have frequently occurred in the North China Plain over
the past decades. Due to high emissions and poor dispersion conditions, issues are …

Different aspects of the stable boundary‐layer structure are contrasted between the very
stable and the weakly stable regimes from a new point of view. This study finds a limit wind …
