• Determination of the Atmospheric Boundary Layer Height from Radiosonde and Lidar Backscatter (2006, background): “The height of the absolute minimum in the backscatter gradient profile is taken as the instantaneous ABL height (see also Cohn and Angevine, 1999, Davis et al., 1999; Flamant et al., 1997).”
• The Effect of Mesh Resolution on Convective Boundary Layer Statistics and Structures Generated by Large-Eddy Simulation (2011, background): “Observations of subgrid-scale turbulence in the atmospheric surface layer demonstrate that a similar ratio of scales Lw/Df, where Lw is the scale of the peak in the vertical velocity spectrum, is a useful dimensionless parameter that collapses the variation of subgrid-scale turbulence over a range o”
