## Abstract Changes in surface fluxes (of momentum, heat, and mass) downwind of a surface roughness change, are related to changes in mean profiles (of velocity, temperature, and concentration). the theory assumes that changes in mean quantities are selfβpreserving. At fetches sufficiently large fo

## Abstract The response of the boundary layer wind profile and the surface shear to a large step change in surface roughness is predicted by three calculation methods and the predictions are compared with measurements by Bradley. The first method, which assumes that local equilibrium exists everyw
A simple model is deduced for the surface layer of a convective boundary layer for zero mean wind velocity over homogeneous rough ground. The model assumes large-scale convective circulation driven by surface heat flux with a flow pattern as it would be obtained by conditional ensemble averages. The
