Stable Boundary Layers with Subsidence: Scaling and Similarity of the Truly Steady State
Thijs Bon, Raúl Bayoán Cal, Johan Meyers
The stable boundary layer (SBL) subjected to large-scale subsidence is studied through large-eddy simulations (LESs) with fixed surface temperature and a linear subsidence velocity…
