Universal dependences between turbulent and mean flow parameters instably and neutrally stratified Planetary Boundary Layers
We consider the resistance law for the planetary boundary layer (PBL) from the point of view of the similarity theory. In other words, we select the set of the PBL governing parameters and search for an optimal way to express through these parameters the geostrophic drag coefficient <i>C<su...
