The parametrization of boundary layer processes in general circulation models

An assessment and comparison are made of two separate methods of parametrizing the boundary-layer processes in a general circulation model. The first method is based on the use of eddy diffusivities. By using the framework of asymptotic similarity theory to describe the boundary layer as observed: a...
