The vertical velocity skewness in the atmospheric boundary layer without buoyancy and Coriolis effects
Elia Buono, Gabriel Katul, Michael Heisel +4
One of the main statistical features of near-neutral atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) turbulence is the positive vertical velocity skewness above the roughness sublayer or t…

Revisiting a drag partition model for canopy-like roughness elements
Elia Buono, Gabriel G. Katul, Davide Vettori +2
Turbulent flows over a large surface area (S) covered by n obstacles experience an overall drag due to the presence of the ground and the protruding obstacles into the flow. The dr…

The advancing wave front on a sloping channel covered by a rod canopy following an instantaneous dam break
Elia Buono, Gabriel G. Katul, Davide Poggi
The drag coefficient for a rigid and uniformly distributed rod canopy covering a sloping channel following the instantaneous collapse of a dam was examined using flume experi…
