## Abstract The empirical determinations of the similarity functions of geostrophic drag and heat transfer relations by Zilitinkevich and Chalikov (1968) and by Clarke (1970a, b) indicate large disparities between their results, raising serious doubts on the universality of these relations. Some re

The parameterization of penetrative convection and other cases of turbulent entrainment by the atmospheric boundary layer is reviewed in this paper. The conservation equations for a one-layer model of entrainment are straightforward; all modeling problems arise in the context of the parameterization
The integrated momentum and thermodynamic equations through the planetary boundary layer (PBL) are solved numerically to predict the mean changes of wind and potential temperature from which surface fluxes are computed using bulk transfer coefficients of momentum and heat. The second part of the stu
