## Abstract An exact analytical solution of the equations of motion is presented for the Blackadar conceptual model of the nocturnal low‐level jet as an inertial oscillation arising from the sudden release of frictional constraint (near‐cessation of dry‐convective turbulent mixing) near sunset. The

## Abstract Single‐column models (SCMs) are widely employed to evaluate boundary‐layer parametrizations under well‐controlled conditions. To compare SCM results to observations, these models must be driven by realistic forcings of the three‐dimensional (3D) atmospheric state. However, these forcing
## Abstract Spatial and temporal characteristics of a nocturnal low‐level jet (LLJ) on the east side of the Western Ghat mountain range over India's west coast and processes leading to the formation of the jet are discussed. The boundary‐layer jet has a regional scale extent, as revealed by high‐re
## Abstract The Caribbean Low Level Jet (CLLJ) is shown to be a real and dominant climatological feature of the early summer Caribbean climate. It manifests as an intensification in the trade winds in the western Caribbean basin (70°W–80°W) with an east‐west axis along 15°N. It is confined to heigh
## Abstract In this short note we discuss a long‐standing problem in modelling the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) over complex terrain: namely, an excessive use of the Monin–Obukhov length scale __L__~MO~. This issue becomes increasingly relevant with the ever‐increasing resolution of numerical w
