A New TKE‐Based Parameterization of Atmospheric Turbulence in the Canadian Global and Regional Climate Models

Abstract A new semi‐empirical turbulence parameterization is presented. Key features of the scheme include representation of turbulent diffusivities in terms of the turbulent kinetic energy that is determined by solving a quasi‐equilibrium form of the equation representing the turbulent kinetic ener...
