Near-surface wind profiles in the nocturnal boundary layer, depth h, above relatively flat, treecovered terrain are described in the context of the analysis of Garratt (1980) for the unstable atmospheric boundary layer. The observations at two sites imply a surface-based transition layer, of depth z

## Abstract Some new measurements of the ozone flux by the profile method have been made and these are compared with others in the literature. A treatment of ozone transfer to the surface is given which takes account of the resistances offered by the fully turbulent air layers and by the surface ro
## Abstract The behaviour of structure parameters, relating turbulence properties to other turbulence properties, has been determined from atmospheric surface layer data obtained over both land and ocean. The ratio of momentum flux to turbulence energy is found to decrease significantly as the inst
Production, transport and dissipation terms in the temperature variance equation have been measured in the atmospheric surface layer. The transport term is, within the experimental uncertainty, negligible. The dissipation term, determined by assuming local isotropy, is approximately equal to product
Production, transport and dissipation terms in the mean cube temperature equation have been evaluated from measurements in the atmospheric surface layer under moderately unstable conditions. The transpart term, calcuIated by making use of the quasi-Gaussian approximation, is, on average, comparable
