Abstract

Data from an instrumented 461m tower and rawinsonde balloons are analysed to determine the characteristics of the moisture field in the planetary boundary layer over central Oklahoma. In the mean, the lowest 94% of the sensibly adiabatic layer exhibits an effectively constant mixing ratio. Inferences as to the effectiveness of downward mixing through the top of the boundary layer are drawn.

A model for the temperature spectrum in the convective boundary layer is presented. The model is developed by using local similarity parameterization of the mixed layer. The model is compared with an idealized temperature spectrum obtained during the Minnesota experiment and exhibits behavior very s
