A one-dimensional model based on the equations of mean motion and turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) with a mixing-length closure scheme has been developed to simulate the turbulence structure of the evolving stably stratified nocturnal boundary layer (NBL). The model also includes a predictive equation

Two formulations of the stable atmospheric boundary layer are proposed for use in weather forecasting or climate models. They feature the log-linear profile near the surface, but are free from the associated critical Richardson number. The diffusion coefficients in the Ekman layer are a natural exte
## Abstract The evolution of the structure of the atmospheric boundary layer during the cooling phase of the diurnal cycle is studied with the help of a oneβdimensional numerical model. The model uses a turbulent energy equation for the determination of the eddy exchange coefficients, which also in
