On the impact of wave-like disturbances on turbulent fluxes and turbulence statistics in nighttime conditions: a case study

The interpretation of flux measurements in nocturnal conditions is typically fraught with challenges. This paper reports on how the presence of wave-like disturbances in a time series, can lead to an overestimation of turbulence statistics, errors when calculating the stability parameter, erroneous...
