Boundary layer structure over and around the Gulf of MexicoUnknown Date (has links)
"This study examines atmospheric boundary layer over and around the Gulf of Mexico during return flow events. The locations investigated are on both the Texas coast and the Florida coast. Moreover, several inland stations such as Jackson (JAN), Mississippi and Shelby Co Airport (BMX), Alabama are added to the analyses to make some comparisons. In addition to examining the boundary layer structure of these coastal and inland stations, an attempt is made to investigate thermadynamic structure on the continental shelf of the Gulf of Mexico in terms of both synoptic analysis and model applications. Return flow events of the Gulf of Mexico are mainly examined by using a three dimensional Air Mass Transformation (AMT) model and a one-dimensional Planetary Boundary Layer (PBL) model. The models are intende for short-range weather forecasts of the temperature profiles in the lower atmosphere and the structure of the boundary layer"--Abstract. / Typescript. / "1996." / "Submitted to the Department of Meteorology in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science." / Advisor: Paul H. Ruscher, Professor Directing Thesis. / Includes bibliographical references.

Dynamics of a differentially-heated geophysical boundary layerSmith, Bartlett Knapp 30 May 1979 (has links)
An analytical two-layer model consisting of a time-dependent stratified
boundary layer topped by stratified free flow is developed in order
to study atmospheric boundary layer production of vertical motion. To
avoid use of a constant eddy viscosity, the boundary layer equations are
layer-integrated over a fixed depth, and surface stress is parameterized
using a linearized drag law.
For flows driven by periodic, differential surface heating, it is
found that the influence of accelerations, stratification, and friction are
to concentrate the maximum convergence near a preferred latitude. The
preferred horizontal length scale for boundary layer production of vertical
motion increases with boundary layer stratification and decreases with
distance from the preferred latitude. / Graduation date: 1980
