  • Penetrative elements at the top of the atmospheric mixed layer

    Creator:
    Paumier, James
    Abstract:
    High resolution data of moisture, temperature and wind velocity collected by aircraft during the 1975 Air Mass Transformation Experiment (ANTEX '75) provide information for detailed investigations of the phenomena occurring at the top of a cloud-topped mixed layer. Joint frequency diagrams of humidity and temperature reveal that for parts of...

  • Influence of stratification and accelerations on boundary production of vertical motion

    Creator:
    Park, Soon-Ung
    Abstract:
    The influence of boundary layer pumping on an externally-forced synoptic-scale flow is examined. The results follow earlier theories of stratified incompressible Boussinesq flow. These theories state that the spin-down time scale and the penetration depth of the influence of boundary layer pumping are inversely proportional to the stratification and directly...
