Planetary Boundary Layer Height (PBL) Value Added Product (VAP): Radiosonde Retrievals

Technical Report Sivaraman, Chitra ; McFarlane, Sally ; Chapman, E. ; ...

The planetary boundary layer (PBL) can be defined as “that part of the troposphere that is directly influenced by the presence of the earth’s surface…” (Stull 1988). The PBL height (or mixing layer depth) can vary significantly with time due to a number of factors including large-scale dynamics, cloudiness, convective mixing, and the diurnal cycle of solar radiation. The structure and depth of the PBL is important to a wide range of atmospheric processes, including cloud formation; aerosol mixing, transport, and transformation; and chemical mixing, transport, and transformation.

Planetary Boundary Layer Height derived from MPL data using Sawyer-Li method

Dataset Sivaraman, Chitra ; Zhang, Damao

Sawyer and Li (2013) developed a technique to derive the PBL height from micropulse lidar (MPL) backscatter measurements using combined wavelet covariance transform and iterative curve-fitting methods. The wavelet covariance transform method applies a Haar wavelet function to MPL backscatter signals (Brooks et al., 2003).
