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…

The vertical-velocity skewness in the inertial sublayer of turbulent wall flows
Elia Buono, Gabriel Katul, Michael Heisel +4
We provide empirical evidence that within the inertial sub layer of adiabatic turbulent flows over smooth walls, the skewness of the vertical velocity component displays uni…
