The vertical temperature profile and hence the stability in the atmosphere near the ground varies significantly between day and night. Typically, the potential temperature at the surface is higher than that above the ground during the day and lower than that above the ground during the night. Such differences in the vertical temperature profile might act to accelerate or slow down wildfire prop...

in this study, as for the re-casting, surface alloying and re-solidification layer of this alloys at the work piece level machining with wire electro discharge machining (wedm), changes of surface micro hardness with changes of operational parameters has been studied. therefore, study shows using surface alloying phenomena with the diffusion of wire material into the machined surface and select...

We study the combined effects of land surface conditions, atmospheric boundary layer dynamics and chemistry on the diurnal evolution of biogenic secondary organic aerosol in the atmospheric boundary layer, using a model that contains the essentials of all these components. First, we evaluate the model for a case study in Hyytiälä, Finland, and find that it is able to satisfactorily reproduce th...

Understanding the interactions between the land surface and the atmosphere is key to modelling boundarylayer meteorology and cloud formation, as well as carbon cycling and crop yield. In this study we explore these interactions in the exchange of water, heat and CO2 in a cropland– atmosphere system at the diurnal and local scale. To that end, we couple an atmospheric mixed-layer model (MXL) to ...

The forest temperature is one key parameter in the models developed for providing early fire risk alerts. The satellite remote sensing data are the best way to obtain this parameter both regionally and globally. This study proposes an approach to obtain Forest Surface Temperature (FST) by means of Terra-ASTER (Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflectance Radiometer) multiband algorithms...

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics Discussions This discussion paper is/has been under review for the journal Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics (ACP). Please refer to the corresponding final paper in ACP if available. Abstract Carbon monoxide (CO) is a main pollutant in urban agglomerations. Quantifying the total burden of this pollutant in a megacity is challaging because not only its surface c...

Observations from the 2004 North American Monsoon Experiment (NAME) have been used to identify an atmospheric internal bore that occurred over the Gulf of California (GoC) on 31 July 2004. This bore disturbance was identified at Bahia Kino along the northwest coast of Mexico during the late evening of 31 July. It was hypothesized to have originated from the interaction of a gravity current from...

In this paper, the row winter wheat was selected as the example to study the component temperature inversion method of land surface target in detail. The result showed that the structural pattern of row crop can affect the inversion precision of component temperature evidently. Choosing appropriate structural pattern of row crop can improve the inversion precision significantly. The iterative m...

The availability of 5-year time series velocity and temperature data from two sonic anemometers installed at Jang Bogo Station, Antarctica, allowed a systematic investigation the turbulence features in stable layer affected by submeso motions characterized vertical divergence some second-order moments for large fraction (quite non-ideal surface layer). effect averaging interval on statistics sh...
