Turbulence and Diffusion in the Atmosphere: Lectures in Environmental Sciences

The nature of turbulence the Navier-Stokes equations the neutral surface boundary layer the energy equations of turbulence diabatic surface boundary layers homogeneous stationary boundary layers unconstrained boundary layers statistical representation of turbulence turbulent diffusion from discrete sources. Appendices: derivation of the turbulent energy equations dimensional analysis and scaling principles matching theory and the PBL resistance laws description of the planetary boundary later simulation model a Monte Carlo smoke plume simulation.
