Description
From this study it appears that until accurate observations of the state of the atmospheric mesostructure are available, no unique correlation between Ri and clear air turbulence (CAT) should be expect·ed to exist.

Description
The relationship between mountain lee waves and clear air turbulence is investigated using the theoretical results of Scorer, Corby and Wellington and the power spectra of atmospheric turbulence determined from recent aircraft measurements.

Description
Equilibrium of alluvial streams has been thoroughly studied in the past century. Many investigators have extended analysis to explain meandering (or braiding) of streams, and attempted to describe the hydraulic geometry of alluvial streams. This study points at the derivation of the characteristics of alluvial streams from fundamental principles. More precisely, this research aims to determine the downstream geometry of alluvial streams (channel width,...

Description
Bulk models of the planetary boundary layer (PBL) conventionally rely on diagnostic forms of the turbulence kinetic energy (TKE) equation to determine the entrainment rate. During episodes of rapid deepening or shallowing, the local time rate of change of the vertically integrated TKE becomes significant compared to the difference between gross production and dissipation. A method is presented to determine the entrainment rate in a bulk PBL model...

Description
This study examines the location and development of turbulence in the morning hours of boundary layer development over mountainous terrain. Four case study days are presented which illustrate important features on two types of days observed in the mountains of central Colorado.
