Π-ML: A dimensional analysis-based machine learning parameterization of optical turbulence in the atmospheric surface layer

Maximilian Pierzyna, Rudolf Saathof, Sukanta Basu

Turbulent fluctuations of the atmospheric refraction index, so-called optical turbulence, can significantly distort propagating laser beams. Therefore, modeling the strength of the…

A novel approach for deriving the stable boundary layer height and eddy viscosity profiles from the Ekman equations

Sukanta Basu, Albert A. M. Holtslag

In this study, we utilize a novel approach to solve the Ekman equations for eddy viscosity profiles in the stable boundary layer. By doing so, a well-known expression for the stabl…

On the Dissipation Rate of Temperature Fluctuations in Stably Stratified Flows

Sukanta Basu, Adam W DeMarco, Ping He

In this study, we explore several integral and outer length scales of turbulence which can be formulated by using the dissipation of temperature fluctuations () and other releva…
