Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Almost half the U.S. population lives along the coast. In another 20 years this population is expected to more than double in size. The unique weather and climate of the coastal zone, circulating pollutants, altering storms, changing temperature, and moving coastal currents affect air pollution and disaster preparedness, ocean pollution, and safeguarding near-shore ecosystems. Activities in commerce, industry, transportation, freshwater supply, safety, recreation, and national defense also are affected. The research community engaged in studies of coastal meteorology in recent years has made significant advancements in describing and predicting atmospheric properties along coasts. Coastal Meteorology reviews this progress and recommends research that would increase the value and application of what is known today.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this volume, we present the lectures given during the 1984 OHOLO Conference, held in Zichron Yaacov, Israel. The Conference was organized by the Israel Institute for Biological Research, Department of Mathematics, which is involved in Environmental Risk Evaluation, and in Projects Estimating the Potential of Wind Energy. The lectures cover a broad spectrum of mathematical models, ranging from those that deal with the solution of atmospheric conservation equations, and to those models that yield empirical estimates based on real time measure ments and thus are unique to the locale where measured. The goal of the Conference was to allow scientists from various countries to meet and discuss topics of mutual interest, including the following: 1. Structure of the boundary layer - primarily models dealing in the understanding of the various processes of atmospheric energy transfer, and their influence on the size and composition of the boundary 1 ayer. 2. Advanced mathematical techniques for describing flow and diffusion - lectures on approximations and techniques for solving the diffu sion and transport equations. 3. Flow over complex terrain - research into various aspects of the problem - mathematical models, physical models, experimental results. 4. Models of pollution transport and deposition.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three separate studies concerning flow over inhomogeneous terrain are presented. Two-dimensional nonlinear models were constructed and then integrated numerically. In the first study, the atmospheric boundary layer flow over terrain with a discontinuous variation in roughness was studied. A time dependent numerical model, using Blackadar's expression of mixing length and assuming no dynamic pressure effect and no vertical displacement of the zero velocity level at the lower boundary, was integrated until a steady-state situation was reached. The results agree with earlier theoretical work of Panofsky and Townsend and also with observations by Sterns and Lettau. The second study represents an attempt to solve a problem similar to the one just described using a steady-state model. An iterative method for solving the equations was derived. In addition, the dynamic pressure effect was also incorporated. The results show satisfactory agreement with those of Panofsky and Townsend. It is found that the dynamic pressure effect causes an apparent horizontal smoothing of the motion field. In the third study, the effect of an isolated hot surface (10 km wide) on the motion and temperature field is investigated. The model is time dependent and is based primarily on a sea breeze model by Estoque. As expected, the results show that the intensity of the upward motions which are induced is inversely proportional to the strength of the prevailing flow. The perturbations in both the temperature and velocity fields extend to several tens of kilometers downwind of the hot surface.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A two-dimensional time dependent numerical model of the atmospheric boundary layer is formulated and used to investigate various characteristics of air motion when a change occurs in roughness and/or temperature characteristics of the underlying surface. The integrations have been carried out for steady-state situations also. The model incorporates the effects of penetrative convection, diabatic influence associated with small-scale eddy diffusion, and pressure effects induced by horizontal nonuniformity of terrain in temperature and roughness. The results show that warm surfaces do not necessarily increase the height of internal boundary layers in the vicinity of surface discontinuity. The effects of discontinuity are quite appreciable at large fetches downwind from the discontinuity. (Author).

This book was released on 1993-03-31 with total page 600 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While I was participating in the IUTAM Symposium on Structure of Turbulence and Drag Reduction in Zurich, Switzerland, in 1989, I was approached by Prof. Dr. Themistocles Dracos to give a course oflectures on the Atmospheric Boundary Layer during my sabbatical leave at Eidgenossische Technische Hochschule (ETH) Zurich - Hoenggerberg in 1991. His reason for the suggestion was the growing interest in the environment and its dynamics created by flow in the Atmospheric Boundary Layer. I have been teaching boundary layer to undergraduate and graduate students for more than twenty five years, so I agreed to give a series of lectures on boundary layer of the atmosphere. From the start I thought very seriously about the problem and consulted all the published works in English on the Atmospheric Boundary Layer (ABL). First consider the topography of the Earth which has oceans calm and turbulent, mountain ranges of height up to 9 km, lands of variable height with forests, food growing vegetable and deserts. The shape of the Earth is nearly spherical except at the north and south poles. Sun supplies the energy to drive circulation of air around the Earth's atmosphere which for all practical purposes occupies the region up to about 10 to 11 km. This brief scenerio of Earth's topography reveals the complexity of flow very close to the Earth's surface that is hardly flat except at the oceans' surface which consists of about 70% of the total Earth's surface.
