Two formulations of the stable atmospheric boundary layer are proposed for use in weather forecasting or climate models. They feature the log-linear profile near the surface, but are free from the associated critical Richardson number. The diffusion coefficients in the Ekman layer are a natural exte

A model for the logarithmic spectra of velocity in the stable boundary layer is developed using the concept of local scaling. The resulting expressions for peak wavelength are in agreement with empirical data from Minnesota 1973. 7 Partially financed by CAPES and FINEP.
This study examines the structure of horizontal modes (meandering, vertical modes or fossil turbulence) in a layer of intermittent turbulence occurring at the top of a strongly stratified nocturnal inversion layer as observed by fast response aircraft data. The spatial variation of the coefficients
