Sensible Heat Flux in Near-Neutral Conditions over the Sea

Creator:

Mahrt, L., Vickers, Dean, Andreas, Edgar L., and Khelif, Djamal

Abstract:

The variation of the sea surface sensible heat flux is investigated using data from the Gulf of Tehuantepec Experiment (GOTEX) and from eight additional aircraft datasets representing a variety of surface conditions. This analysis focuses on near-neutral conditions because these conditions are common over the sea and are normally neglected,...

Low-Level Wind Maxima and Structure of the Stably Stratified Boundary Layer in the Coastal Zone

Creator:

Mahrt, L., Vickers, Dean, and Andreas, Edgar L.

Abstract:

A Rutan Aircraft Factory Long-EZ aircraft flew numerous low-level slant soundings on two summer days in 2001 off the northeastern coast of the United States. The soundings are analyzed here to study the nonstationary vertical structure of the wind, temperature, and turbulence. An error analysis indicates that fluxes computed from...
