Book Description
Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2003 in the subject Physics - Applied physics, grade: None, Mahatma Gandhi University (Space Physics Laboratory - Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre, Thiruvananthrapuram - 695 022), course: Atmospheric Sciences, language: English, abstract: The Atmospheric Boundary Layer (ABL) over the oceanic surface is commonly referred to as the Marine Atmospheric Boundary Layer (MABL) and it can be considered as the turbulent region in the immediate vicinity of the oceanic surface. The major features that distinguish the ABL over ocean from its land counterpart are the wet, mobile, lower boundary in addition to certain ocean-specific thermodynamic and dynamic characteristics. The structure and characteristics of the MABL and its interactions with the oceanic surface and the overlying free atmosphere are known mainly as a result of a synergistic combination of observational studies, numerical and laboratory simulations, and dimensional analysis. Our present knowledge and understanding of the MABL over various oceanic regions of the globe comes from the experience and expertise acquired during various field experiments. The present thesis aims at improving our understanding of the structural characteristics of the MABL and its associated dynamics over the data-sparse region of western tropical Indian Ocean by making use of the meteorological data collected onboard Oceanic Research Vessel (ORV) Sagar Kanya and Kaashidhoo Climate Observatory (KCO) during the Intensive Field Phase (IFP-99) of the Indian Ocean Experiment (INDOEX).

Boundary-Layer Meteorology 25th Anniversary Volume, 1970–1995
Author: John R. Garratt
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9780792341918
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 434
Book Description
The journal Boundary-Layer Meteorology was started in 1970 and has become the premier vehicle for the publication of research papers in its field. Dr R.E. Munn served as Editor-in-Chief until recently. The special 25th Anniversary volume, on which this book is based, was compiled from review and other articles solicited and selected as a `Festschrift' to honour Ted Munn's achievement as editor of the journal over that time. Articles by leading contributors to the field include reviews of field studies (Askervein, HEXOS, Cabauw) and their impacts; numerical modelling (large-eddy simulation of the surface layer, frontal structures); analyses and critical discussions (of the von Karman constant, bulk aerodynamic formulations, air-sea interaction, vegetation canopies); and reviews or previews of progress in our understanding of the atmospheric boundary layer, turbulence simulation, Lagrangian descriptions of turbulent diffusion and remote sensing of the boundary layer. The collection provides an excellent perspective on the state of the subject and where it is headed. It should provide fascinating and stimulating reading for researchers and students of boundary-layer meteorology and related areas.

Adjustment of the Atmospheric Boundary Layer with Capes and Points Off Southern California
Author: Christopher G. Kruse

ISBN: 9781303260469
Category : Air flow
Languages : en
Pages : 70
Book Description
Strong wind and moderate wind cases conducted as part of the Precision Atmospheric Marine Boundary Layer Experiment were analyzed in order to study marine atmospheric boundary layer (MABL) adjustment around two major coastal points. In the moderate wind case, MABL adjustments were observed upstream of both points, while in the strong wind case, adjustment was only observed upstream of one of the points. A rapid thinning and acceleration of the MABL were observed downstream of both points in both cases, consistent with expansion fan dynamics. It was found that flow often transitions from subcritical to supercritical around the points, leading to upstream blocking and downstream expansion fan adjustments. Lee thinning and acceleration were observed in the strong wind case; however, these adjustments are influenced by both flow around and over the coastal points. Three distinct layers were often observed in the lees of coastal points.
