Upgrades to the Boundary-Layer Scheme in the Met Office Numerical Weather Prediction Model (2008, background): “Other NWP models also typically use formulations that give apparently excessive mixing (e.g. Cuxart et al. 2006).”
A Total Turbulent Energy Closure Model for Neutrally and Stably Stratified Atmospheric Boundary Layers (2007, methodology): “The intercomparison included both 11 large-eddy simulations (LESs; Beare et al. 2006) and 20 different turbulence closure schemes (1D models) from operational weather services and re-search-type models (Cuxart et al. 2006).”
The Minimum Wind Speed for Sustainable Turbulence in the Nocturnal Boundary Layer (2012, result): “The critical speed is predicted in the range of about 5– 7 m s21, depending on radiative forcing and surface properties, and is in agreement with observations at Cabauw.”
Stable Atmospheric Boundary Layers and Diurnal Cycles: Challenges for Weather and Climate Models (2013, background): “In addition, modelers have different standpoints on the complexity needed to represent atmospheric turbulence and vertical diffusion processes (e.g., Delage 1997; Teixeira et al. 2008; Zilitinkevich et al. 2008; Baklanov et al. 2011).”
Large-Eddy Simulation of the Atmospheric Boundary Layer (2020, methodology): “The GABLS1 intercomparison established a strong basis for the use of LES to examine weak tomoderately stableABLs and became a benchmark for the evaluation of single column models (Cuxart et al. 2006; Svensson and Holtslag 2009), the development of LES SGS models (e.”
Intercomparison of Planetary Boundary-Layer Parametrizations in the WRF Model for a Single Day from CASES-99 (2011, methodology): “Under the first GABLS intercomparison project for a stably stratified atmospheric boundary layer, Cuxart et al. (2006) mentioned that the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts SCM with low vertical resolution is largely affected by changes in the surface-layer formulation, while the…”
Energy- and flux-budget (EFB) turbulence closure model for stably stratified flows. Part I: steady-state, homogeneous regimes (2006, background): “Only rather recently was treated in terms of the turbulent potential energy (TPE) by Dalaudier and Sidi (1987), Hunt et al. (1988), Canuto and Minotti (1993), Schumann and Gerz (1995), Hanazaki and Hunt (1996, 2004), Keller and van Atta θ E”
Mixed-phase clouds cause climate model biases in Arctic wintertime temperature inversions (2014, background): “Humidity inversions, i.e. specific humidity rising with altitude, are also common in Arctic boundary layers (Curry 1986; Devasthale et al. 2011).”
