    Notes: We derive a physical-space expression for the mean rate of transfer of kinetic energy from wave numbers below k to those above. We show that in stationary, homogeneous turbulence our expression is equivalent to Kraichnan's Π(k). In inhomogeneous turbulence it differs slightly from the form commonly used in connection with large-eddy simulation. We attribute this difference to the use of an incorrect expression for the turbulent transport of kinetic energy in wave numbers below k. We suggest that our two-term, physical-space expression could be useful in modeling energy transfer in nonstationary, inhomogeneous flows. © 2002 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Large-eddy simulations have shown that passive, conservative scalars emitted into the convective boundary layer (CBL) of the atmosphere have unusual diffusion properties. A species introduced through an area source at the layer top and having zero flux through the bottom (i.e., one undergoing "top-down'' diffusion) has a well-behaved eddy diffusivity, but one introduced at the bottom, with zero flux at the top ("bottom-up'' diffusion) has a much different diffusivity profile in the same turbulence field. It is suggested that the roots of this transport asymmetry lie in the interaction between skewness of the transporting turbulence and the gradient of the flux of the transported scalar. A kinematic model is used to show that this interaction can indeed induce transport asymmetry in small-time-scale, homogeneous turbulence. The present simulations with a Lagrangian particle model confirm that this asymmetry extends to large-time-scale, inhomogeneous turbulence. A heuristic model of convective turbulence suggests that its asymmetric transport is also described by the kinematic model but with the small-time-scale restriction removed. In all cases the transport asymmetry effects scale with the parameter SσwTL/h, where S, σw, and TL are the skewness, standard deviation, and Lagrangian integral time scale of the transporting turbulence, and h is the layer depth; a scalar flux gradient is required as well.

    Notes: Abstract I outline the general features of the vertical profile of the vertical flux of a conservative scalar in the planetary boundary layer, giving special emphasis to the convective case and emphasizing the importance of the Webb correction. After the influence of thermal stability on the structure of the turbulent eddies carrying this flux is reviewed, recent developments in parameterizing vertical transport in the convective boundary layer are discussed. I then survey three approaches to the numerical modeling of this transport — second-order closure, large-eddy simulation, and direct numerical simulation. Eddy-correlation, eddy-accumulation, and indirect techniques for measuring scalar fluxes are surveyed and contrasted. Finally, I discuss the physics of probe-induced flow distortion and its impact on scalar flux measurement, showing that it can be quite severe for trace species density fluxes measured from aircraft.

    Notes: Abstract We carried out measurements to test a simple theory of the effect of probe-induced flow distortion on turbulence measurements. We used two three-component sonic anemometers mounted 1.8m apart at a height of 6.7 m. Behind one was a horizontal circular cylinder of radius 0.15 m and length 1.2 m, chosen to model two-dimensional probe-induced flow distortion in the limit where the scale of the turbulence is very large compared to the scale of the probe. The second sonic anemometer measured the undistorted flow. The measured flow-distortion effects on the Reynolds shearing stress and the variances of streamwise and vertical velocity agree well with the theory.

    Notes: Abstract The “convective mass flux” parameterization often used in meteorological modeling expresses the vertical flux of a transported scalar as proportional to the product of the difference in mean values of the scalar in updrafts and downdrafts and their characteristic velocity. The proportionality factor is a constant to be specified. We show that this proportionality factor also appears in the “relaxed eddy accumulation” technique of Businger and Oncley. That associates the surface-layer flux of a scalar with the product of the standard deviation of vertical velocity and the mean concentration difference between updrafts and downdrafts. We show that this constant (b) is determined uniquely by the joint probability density (jpd) of vertical velocity and the scalar. Using large-eddy simulation, we generate this jpd for a conservative scalar diffusing through a convective boundary layer. It has quite different forms in “top-down” and “bottom-up” diffusion geometries. The bottom-up jpd is fairly well represented by a jointly Gaussian form and implies b ~ 0.6, in good agreement with the surface-layer value reported by Businger and Oncley. The top-down jpd is strikingly non-Gaussian and gives b ~ 0.47. Updrafts carry the bulk of the scalar flux - 70% in the bottom-up case, 60% in the top-down case.

    Notes: Abstract This paper compares a number of one-dimensional closure models for the planetary boundary layer (PBL) that are currently in use in large-scale atmospheric models. Using the results of a large-eddy simulation (LES) model as the standard of comparison, the PBL models are evaluated over a range of stratifications from free convective to neutral and a range of surface shear stresses. Capping inversion strengths for the convective cases range from weakly to strongly capped. Six prototypical PBL models are evaluated in this study, which focuses on the accuracy of the boundary-layer fluxes of momentum, heat, and two passive scalars. One scalar mimics humidity and the other is a top-down scalar entrained into the boundary layer from above. A set of measures based on the layer-averaged differences of these fluxes from the LES solutions is developed. In addition to the methodological framework and suite of LES solutions, the main result of the evaluation is the recognition that all of the examined PBL parameterizations have difficulty reproducing the entrainment at the top of the PBL, as given by the LES, in most parameter regimes. Some of the PBL models are relatively accurate in their entrainment flux in a subset of parameter regimes. The sensitivity of the PBL models to vertical resolution is explored, and substantive differences are observed in the performance of the PBL models, relative to LES, at low resolution typical of large scale atmospheric models.
