## Abstract Correlation coefficients have been formed between the winds at pairs of points, the correlation being made between components __along__ the line joining the points and also between components at rightβangles. The original purpose was the derivation of the effective winds experienced by

β¦ Synopsis
Measurements of the turbulent fluctuations of wind, temperature and humidity were made in the atmospheric surface layer. The statistics of the fluctuations were investigated in both the lime and frequency domains. The vertical wind, temperature and smaller-scale horizontal wind fluctuations appear to obey the Monin-Obukhov similarity hypothesis. The humidity fluctuations were found to be governed by a humidity flux stability parameter rather than the normal Monin-Obukhov length.

## Abstract The results are given of the analysis of temperature and humidity fluctuations observed from an aircraft in 61 runs at heights of 30β550 m above the open sea in conditions of active convection in the southβeast Trades. The dimensionless temperature fluctuations varied with ( β __z/L__)^
Height dependency of statistics of horizontal and vertical wind direction fluctuations over plant canopies have been studied, using observational data in the surface layer over paddy fields. Vertical wind directions just above plant canopies have significant positive average values and large standar
## Abstract Wind tunnel simulations of aeolian transport carried out over a range in mean temperature between 32βΒ°C and β9βΒ°C suggest that cold airflows support higher mass transport rates (__Q__) than very warm air. The magnitude of this increase is larger than expected, so that analytical and sem
