A convective boundary layer model with time-adaptive grids

This thesis presents the first implementation of time-adaptive non-uniform grid distributions in higher order turbulence closure modelling of the convective boundary layer. The aim was to introduce a vertical grid that resolves the surface and entrainment layers, but uses coarser resolution elsew...
