A new formulation for eddy diffusivity is derived from Taylor's statistical theory on turbulence and from a generalized turbulent spectral equation for energy in the inertial subrange. The latter aspect is taken into account for considering the intermittency phenomenon within turbulence model. The a
Diurnal variations of the vertical profiles of wind and temperature have been surveyed, and the diffusivity and the dimensionless gradient function in the atmospheric boundary layer have been estimated. Even in the middle of the atmospheric boundary layer (e.g., below a height of 442 m), the vertica
Simulated data derived from random numbers are used to show that the process of relating u& and similar properties to the stability parameter z/L is highly susceptible to error. An alternative method, making use of Ri as a stability index, is not affected in this way and is used to re-examine the da
