Characterizing the Turbulent Structure of the Convective Boundary Layer Using ARM/ASR Observations and LES Model Output

This project will ultimately combine observations from Raman lidar, Doppler lidar, AERI, eddy correlation measurements, and airborne and ground-based high spectral resolution lidar systems with many large eddy simulations (LES) of realistic boundary layer cases to study: The diurnal evolution of the boundary layer thermodynamic structure; The turbulent structure of the CBL and the entrainment zone; The ability of LES models to simulate the thermodynamic and turbulent structure of the CBL; How perturbations in the surface properties and CBL properties influence boundary layer clouds; The similarities and differences in the boundary layer and cloud interaction in the marine vs. continental boundary layer.

Characterizing the Turbulent Structure of the Convective Boundary Layer Using ARM/ASR Observations and LES Model Output

This project used high-resolution observations and output from large-eddy simulation models to characterize turbulent motions within the planetary boundary layer. As part of this research, we (a) continued development of techniques to derive profiles of temperature and humidity from ground-based instruments, (b) characterized the higher order moments of water vapor at a tropical location, (c) evaluated the time-of-day dependent turbulent mixing within the boundary layer, (d) developed an improved method to derive turbulent quantities at the top of the boundary layer from profiles of temperature, humidity, and wind, (e) organized and conducted a large field campaign to study the interactions between the land surface and atmosphere, and (f) developed improved ways to determine the depth of the boundary layer.
