A model of a stationary planetary boundary layer is proposed based on the equation of motion with the advective term retained. The latter is modeled by means of the so-called geostrophic momentum approximation in two versions -original and modified. New expressions for the vertical velocity W, at th
## Abstract The semiβgeostrophic model has been widely used to understand atmospheric flows such as fronts and developing cyclones. However, there have been a number of demonstrations of its lack of accuracy. This paper presents theory and computations to demonstrate that the semiβgeostrophic model
