Modeling study on the fair weather marine boundary layer of the GATE

· J. Atmos. Sci.; (United States)
A three-dimensional ensemble-mean mesoscale atmospheric model, with simplified second-moment turbulence closure equations and a statistical treatment for the condensation process, is used to stimulate a fair weather marine boundary layer observed during the GATE (GARP (Global Atmospheric Research Program) Atlantic Tropical Experiment). The data deduced from airborne and surface-based instrumentation provided not only comprehensive initial and boundary conditions for the model but also permitted detailed comparisons between modeled and observed turbulence quantities.
