Stratification, turbulence organization, and pressure-strain effects on surface-layer turbulence anisotropy
Ivana Stiperski, Gabriel G. Katul, Elie Bou-Zeid +1
At large scales, the Reynolds stress tensor exhibits notable anisotropy, a key feature of all wall-bounded turbulent flows. Yet, how the drivers of this anisotropy evolve with shea…
Impact of Heterogeneity on Scalar Flux Variance Relations Across Diverse Ecosystems
Tyler Waterman, Ivana Stiperski, Laura Torres-Rojas +1
Monin-Obukhov Similarity Theory (MOST), the traditional surface layer theory used to understand the behavior, scaling and exchange of heat, water vapor and carbon dioxide between t…
Evaluating Anisotropy-based Monin-Obukhov Similarity Theory over Canopies and Complex Terrain
Tyler Waterman, Ivana Stiperski, Nathaniel Chaney +1
Monin Obukhov Similarity Theory (MOST) has long served as the basis for parameterizations of turbulence exchange between the surface and the atmospheric boundary layer in models fo…
Revealing the drivers of turbulence anisotropy over flat and complex terrain: an interpretable machine learning approach
Samuele Mosso, Karl Lapo, Ivana Stiperski
Turbulence anisotropy was recently integrated into Monin-Obukhov Similarity Theory (MOST), extending its applicability to complex terrain and diverse surface conditions. Implementi…
