Energy Similarity - a New Turbulence Closure Model for Stable Boundary Layers

A new approach is proposed for scaling stably stratified turbulence. The fluxes of momentum & heat are directly related to the level of turbulent kinetic energy and temperature variance through the energy similarity relations. In these relations the dimensionless momentum and heat fluxes are assumed to be functions of the local gradient Richardson number only.

dimensionless fluxes; local gradient Richardson number; weather prediction & climate modeling

Na ovom preliminarnom izvjescu je B.G. nastavio raditi tokom 2005. i tako suradjujući s njegovom bivšom znanstvenom grupom u Stockholmu. Dio ovih ideja je pretočen u rad s Amelom Jeričević (Tellus).
