atmospheric stability in a sentence
Examples
- The wind profile of the atmospheric boundary layer ( surface to around 2000 metres ) is generally logarithmic in nature and is best approximated using the log wind profile equation that accounts for surface roughness and atmospheric stability.
- \sigma _ z and \ sigma _ y are functions of the atmospheric stability class ( i . e ., a measure of the turbulence in the ambient atmosphere ) and of the downwind distance to the receptor.
- The vertical range of sodars is approximately 0.2 to 2 kilometers ( km ) and is a function of frequency, power output, atmospheric stability, turbulence, and, most importantly, the pulse length and maximum altitude.
- The lack of heavy rainfall arises from high atmospheric stability caused, in turn, by the combination of cool waters from semi-permanent coastal upwelling and the presence of the cold Humboldt Current and warm air aloft associated with the South Pacific anticyclone.
