Illustration of daytime-warm-season boundary layer circulations and Cumulus cloud formation over complex terrain. Current research efforts in mesoscale and boundary-layer dynamics utilize novel ...

This is called the no-slip condition. Figure 7. Velocity profile in a boundary layer. The most powerful consequence of the no-slip condition is the appearance of strong velocity gradients near the ...

The study of the processes that lead to the formation, growth, and precipitation of clouds in the boundary layer of the lower atmosphere. Develops models and analyzes observations to understand the ...

Thus, forests serve as large water pumps between the soil and the atmosphere. The boundary layer of the canopy is determined by the shape, density, and aerial spread of the crowns of trees in a ...

The Boundary Layer Wind Tunnel in the Hele-Shaw Laboratory within the Faculty of Engineering is a designated National Wind Tunnel Facility, supporting a diverse range of research activities for both ...

Recent discoveries offer deeper insight into the movement of tectonic plates. New research has found that variations in rock ...

At a Reynolds number between 10^5 and 10^6, the drag coefficient takes a sudden dip. The size of the wake decreases, indicating that the boundary layer separation on the cylinder or sphere occurs ...
