Reynolds' Limit Formula for Dorodnitzyn's Atmospheric Boundary Layer in Convective Conditions

Abstract

Atmospheric convection is an essential aspect of atmospheric movement, and it is a source of errors in Climate Models. Being able to generate approximate limit formulas and compare the estimations they produce, could give a way to reduce them. In this article, it is shown that it is enough to assume that the velocity's $L^2$-norm is bounded, has locally integrable, $L_{loc}^1$, weak partial derivatives up to order two, and a negligible variation of its first velocity's coordinate in direction parallel to the surface, to obtain a Reynolds' limit formula for a Dorodnitzyn's compressible gaseous Boundary Layer in atmospheric conditions.
