The energy- and flux budget theory for surface layers in atmospheric convective and stably stratified turbulence

I. Rogachevskii, N. Kleeorin, S. Zilitinkevich

The energy- and flux budget (EFB) turbulence closure theory for the atmospheric surface layers in convective and stably stratified turbulence has been developed using budget equati…

Energy and flux budget closure theory for passive scalar in stably stratified turbulence

N. Kleeorin, I. Rogachevskii, S. Zilitinkevich

The energy and flux budget (EFB) closure theory for a passive scalar (non-buoyant and non-inertial particles or gaseous admixtures) is developed for stably stratified turbulence. T…

Order out of chaos: Shifting paradigm of convective turbulence

Sergej S Zilitinkevich, Evgeny Kadantsev, Irina Repina +2

Turbulence is ever produced in the low-viscosity/large-scale fluid flows by the velocity shears and, in unstable stratification, by buoyancy forces. It is commonly believed that bo…

Acceleration of raindrops formation due to tangling-clustering instability in turbulent stratified atmosphere

T. Elperin, N. Kleeorin, B. Krasovitov +4

Condensation of water vapor on active cloud condensation nuclei produces micron-size water droplets. To form rain, they must grow rapidly into at least 50-100 m droplets. Observ…

Turbulent Diffusion and Turbulent Thermal Diffusion of Aerosols in Stratified Atmospheric Flows

M. Sofiev, V. Sofieva, T. Elperin +3

The paper analyzes the phenomenon of turbulent thermal diffusion in the Earth atmosphere, its relation to the turbulent diffusion and its potential impact on aerosol distribution.…

Similarity theory and calculation of turbulent fluxes at the surface for the stably stratified atmospheric boundary layers

Sergej Zilitinkevich, Igor Esau

In this paper we revise the similarity theory for the stably stratified atmospheric boundary layer (ABL), formulate analytical approximations for the wind velocity and potential te…
