Profile data from simultaneous sodar and tethered balloon measurements have been analyzed with respect to the complex structure of the atmospheric boundary layer in the Upper Rhine Valley. Special attention was focused on ozone concentration profiles measured with a novel lightweight ozone sensor at the balloon. In general, good agreement was found between the signature of the ozone concentration profiles and special features of the backscattered sound intensity profiles. This allows reliable estimation of the mixing height from the sodar data even in a complex stable ABL, except for very shallow mixing layers (below about 75 m), which could not be detected by the sodar. 相似文献

Summertime Mixing Heights At Vienna, Austria, Estimated from Vertical Soundings and by a Numerical Model 总被引：1，自引：1，他引：0
Martin Piringer 《Boundary-Layer Meteorology》1998,89(1):25-45
Mixing heights calculated by the Danish OML meteorological pre-processor are compared to those diagnosed from radio- and tether-sonde vertical potential temperature profiles. All methods give reliable estimates of noon mixing heights deduced from radiosoundings, especially when the boundary layer is fully convective. Differences are larger during convective conditions without a well-defined capping inversion in the radiosonde potential temperature profile or when OML calculates a mechanical mixing height. The OML model is also able to calculate the daily course of the mixing height as expected. The tethersonde-derived mixing heights are especially valuable during the morning rise of the elevated inversion. Modifications to all three methods to improve mixing-height predictions are discussed. 相似文献

Summary ?This paper describes the configuration of measurement systems operated continuously at the Meteorological Observatory Lindenberg
with the aim of constructing combined profiles of wind and temperature – so-called composite profiles – covering the boundary
layer with high temporal and vertical resolution. This is required for the forcing of a micro-α-scale model in order to simulate
the atmospheric boundary layer structure over a heterogeneous landscape during the LITFASS-98 experiment. The problems of
combining measurements of different remote sensing and in-situ systems are briefly discussed. Although the measuring range
of individual remote sensing systems is variable, the height coverage of wind and temperature profile measurements by sodar/RASS
and two wind profiler radar/RASS complement each other very well. Using a simple merging procedure composite wind and temperature
profiles have been synthesized based on radiosonde, windprofiler/RASS, sodar/RASS and tower measurements. Time-height cross
sections of hourly composite profiles show considerably more details of the boundary layer structure than simple radiosonde
interpolation due to the higher sampling frequency, higher vertical resolution and increased accuracy at the lower levels.
Finally some qualifications of the formulated algorithm are suggested for future application.

Local variations in the summertime mixing height over metropolitan St. Louis, Missouri, are examined in order to evaluate the dynamical and thermodynamical influences of an urban area. Case studies employing aircraft, lidar, pilot balloon and radiosonde data from Project METROMEX show variations in the height of a temperature inversion which caps a deep mixing layer. A dome-like lifting of the inversion structure occurs over the urban-industrial center with subsidence of the inversion layer at the perimeter of the metropolitan area. The maximum amplitude of the dome occurs shortly after mid-day, suggesting that thermal influences are primarily responsible. 相似文献

A Doppler sodar system controlled by microcomputer is described in this paper. The sodar was usedto detect the vertical distribution of wind and temperature stratification in the atmospheric boundary layer.The detecting results show that at night the vertical distribution of wind is very complicated, which can appearas a structure of two or three layers. In nocturnal atmospheric boundary layer sometimes there exists verythin layer in multi-layer inversion and it can be retained for a long time. 相似文献

Sodar has been used for about 20 years to determine mixing height. However, estimation of the height of a convective boundary layer (CBL) that exceeds the sodar-probing range is still an unsolved question. As one possible way, it is suggested that one adapt a simple mixed-layer model to sodar observations during the morning growth period of the CBL, when its top can be clearly detected. Results are compared with other methods for CBL-height estimation from sodar data that have been proposed in the literature. Finally, some prognostic aspects are discussed. 相似文献

Summary A REMTECH PA2 Doppler Sodar is operated regularly at the Czech Hydrometeorological Institute (CHMI) observatory in Prague,
collocated with a routine rawinsonde sounding system. The Air Pollution Control Division of CHMI utilises the sodar data in
air pollution studies and as an information support for the smog warning system operated in Prague. Besides of the basic software
for echo strength and wind profile evaluation, optional routines for deriving parameters such as inversion and mixing height,
stability class etc. were delivered by the sodar manufacturer. Based on a sufficiently large data set (more than one year)
of synchronous sodar and rawinsonde measurements, an analysis and comparison of inversion and mixing heights provided by both
sounding systems have been accomplished in order to evaluate the correctness and accuracy of sodar estimates of these parameters.
In contrast to the wind speed and wind direction data, for which a satisfactory agreement with other kind of measurements
has been reported by many studies, the results for inversion and mixing height detection were totally disappointing. A direct
applicability of inversion height and mixing height data provided by the REMTECH’s automatic routines in air pollution studies
or smog warning systems is quite problematical with the present “state of the art”.

Some characteristics of wavelike motions in the atmospheric boundary layer observed by sodar are considered. In an experiment
carried out in February 1993 in Milan, Italy, Doppler sodar measurements were accompanied by in situ measurements of temperature
and wind velocity vertical profiles using a tethered balloon up to 600 m. The oscillations of elevated wavy layers containing
intense thermal turbulence, usually associated with temperature-inversion zones, were studied by using correlation and spectral
analysis methods. The statistics of the occurrence of wavelike and temperature-inversion events are presented. The height
distributions of Brunt–Vaisala frequency and wind shear and their correlation within elevated inversion layers were determined,
with a strong correlation observed between the drift rate of the wavy layers and the vertical velocity measured by Doppler
sodar inside these layers. Spectral analysis showed similarities regarding their frequency characteristics. The phase speed
and propagation direction of waves were estimated from the time delay of the signals at three antennae to provide estimates
of wavelength. Moreover, wavelengths were estimated from the intrinsic frequency obtained from sodar measurements of the Doppler
vertical velocity and oscillations of wavy turbulent layers. The two wavelength estimates are in good agreement. 相似文献

Summary Within the Mesoscale Alpine Programme MAP conducted in autumn 1999, the vertical structure and the temporal evolution of the planetary boundary layer (PBL) in the Rhine Valley 2km south of Lake Constance were observed with a Remtech PA2 sodar (sound-detection-and-ranging instrument) rendering half-hour averages of the three-dimensional wind profile within the lowest kilometre above ground. During Foehn events, tethered balloon soundings and wind profiler measurements were conducted in addition to the rawinsonde network which was built up for the MAP field campaign.The remote sensing instrument renders a surprisingly high number of valid data during south Foehn. Due to the frequent formation of a cold air pool with stable conditions below the Foehn flow with near-neutral static stability, even more sodar data is valid during Foehn periods than during no Foehn periods. A significant reduction of the sodar data quality is only observed during Foehn events with grounding of the Foehn at the sodar site due to high background noise. At higher levels, a Foehn signal can be detected from the sodar wind and turbulence intensitiy information. With Foehn, higher wind speeds and larger turbulence intensities occur than without Foehn. Comparisons to rawinsonde and tethersonde soundings and wind profiler measurements at sites nearby reveal the spatial inhomogeneity of the Foehn flow within this part of the valley as well as instrumental short-comings. Different methods to determine the mixing height using the vertical sounding devices lead to some uncertainty of mixing height estimates which however can reasonably be explained. 相似文献

以北京市观象台2010年8月、2011年8月每日3次 (08:00, 14:00, 20:00,北京时,下同) L波段探空秒间隔数据为实况,对BJ-RUC系统 (rapid updated cycle system for the Beijing area) 分析和预报边界层性能进行了初步评估。结果表明:BJ-RUC系统对北京地区夏季白天边界层的细致特征具有较好的预报能力,但也存在明显的系统性误差。08:00边界层偏冷; 14:00和20:00 1 km以下的边界层则显著偏暖, 边界层内明显偏湿。整体上模式对边界层内温度、湿度的预报误差均高于自由大气。该系统对北京地区边界层内早晨 (08:00) 从夜间山风向白天谷风环流过渡、午后 (14:00) 到日落后 (20:00)1500 m以下盛行西南偏南气流的日变化特征具有较强的预报能力。系统预报的14:00边界层顶高度与评估时段内实际对流边界层高度的变化趋势一致。但预报的对流边界层顶偏高,这与BJ-RUC系统采用YSU边界层参数化方案的垂直混合更强有关。 相似文献

Measurements and Parametrizations of the Atmospheric Boundary-Layer Height at Dome C,Antarctica 总被引：2，自引：2，他引：0

An experimental campaign, Study of the Atmospheric Boundary Layer Environmental at Dome C, was held during 2005 at the French-Italian
station of Concordia at Dome C. Ground-based remote sensors, as well as in situ instrumentation, were used during the experimental
campaign. The measurements allowed the direct estimation of the polar atmospheric boundary-layer height and the test of several
parametrizations for the unstable and stable boundary layers. During the months of January and February, weak convection was
observed while, during the polar night, a long-lived stable boundary layer occurred continuously. Under unstable stratification
the mixing-layer height was determined using the sodar backscattered echoes and potential temperature profiles. The two estimations
are highly correlated, with the mixing height ranging between 30 and 350 m. A simple prognostic one-dimensional model was
used to estimate the convective mixing-layer height, with the correlation coefficient between observations and model results
being 0.66. The boundary-layer height under stable conditions was estimated from radiosounding profiles as the height where
the critical Richardson number is reached; values between 10 and 150 m were found. A visual inspection of potential temperature
profiles was also used as further confirmation of the experimental height; the results of the two methods are in good agreement.
Six parametrizations from the literature for the stable boundary-layer height were tested. Only the parametrization that considers
the long-lived stable boundary layer and takes into account the interaction of the stable layer with the free atmosphere is
in agreement with the observations. 相似文献

Simultaneous observations were made of the Marine Boundary Layer at Tarapur, a site near Bombay on the sea coast, by acoustic sounder and instrumented tower. The meteorological tower was used to sense wind and temperature at various levels up to a height of 120 m while the acoustic sounder was used to examine the thermal structure of the boundary layer up to a height of 700 m. Data recorded for the year 1982 have been analysed.Analysis of the data shows that while the normal structures of thermal echoes and shear echoes represent the mixing depth of the atmospheric boundary layer, the often observed elevated layers are due to sea breeze reversals with their base giving a measure of the depth of the sea-breeze circulation during the day. A sea breeze has been detected during both spring (March to May) and autumn (October to December) months. The onset times are around 1000 hr during spring months and around noon during the autumn period, the height of development being respectively up to 500 and 350 m. The capability of the sodar to detect the base and thickness of the sea breeze, is clearly revealed. 相似文献

The wind speed shear in the case of stable stratification in the linear part of the profile spreading high above the surface layer of constant flows is studied using the data of long-term sodar measurements in the atmospheric boundary layer. The wind speed shear in this part remains almost invariable during several hours at the significant change in parameters of the Monin-Obukhov theory. The length of this linear part can be associated with the layer of the critical Richardson number. In the case of the pronounced temperature inversion (with the positive gradient of more than 1°C per 100 m), the wind speed profile is close to the linear function in the most part of the nocturnal mixing layer. Proposed is a scale characterizing the height of the surface layer of constant flows. 相似文献

Nocturnal convection, originating in a well-mixed marine cloud-topped boundary layer, advected onshore, was observed using a Doppler sodar on the Tyrrhenian coast in Italy. The horizontal and vertical dimensions of the downdrafts were evaluated. The oscillation frequency triggered by the downdrafts at the inversion layer, derived from the harmonic analysis of the sodar measured vertical velocity (w), is compared with the Brunt-Vaisala frequency, obtained from the rawinsonde temperature profile. A similarity function for the 2w vertical profile was used to fit the sodar experimental data and to retrieve the depth of the mixing layer and the sensible heat flux at the top of the cloud layer. The results are in agreement with the convection layer depth observed in the sodar echoes facsimile record, and with the energy budget evaluated at the top of the cloud layer using the rawinsonde profiles. 相似文献

Evidence of Organized Large Eddies by Ground-Based Doppler Lidar, Sonic Anemometer and Sodar 总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3

In an experiment investigating the planetary boundary layer (PBL) wind and temperature fields, and PBL inversion height recorded by various instruments, the results reveal the presence of organized large eddies (OLE) or rolls. The measurements by lidars, anemometers, soundings and sodar gave an overview of the characteristics of the rolls and sources of energy production that maintain them. The experimental results obtained on two consecutive days are compared to model outputs. The agreement is excellent, showing that thermal stratification and wind shear are important factors in the structure and dynamics of OLE. A heterodyne Doppler lidar (HDL) is shown to be a useful tool in the study of OLE. 相似文献

Data collected during July and August from the Arctic Ocean Experiment 2001 illustrated a common occurrence of specific-humidity
(q) inversions, where moisture increases with height, coinciding with temperature inversions in the central Arctic boundary
layer and lower troposphere. Low-level stratiform clouds and their relationship to temperature inversions are examined using
radiosonde data and data from a suite of remote sensing instrumentation. Two low-level cloud regimes are identified: the canonical
case of stratiform clouds, where the cloud tops are capped by the temperature inversion base (CCI—Clouds Capped by Inversion)
and clouds where the cloud tops were found well inside the inversion (CII—Clouds Inside Inversion). The latter case was found
to occur more than twice as frequently than the former. The characteristic of the temperature inversion is shown to have an
influence on the cloud regime that was supported. Statistical analyses of the cloud regimes using remote sensing instruments
suggest that CCI cases tend to be dominated by single-phase liquid cloud droplets; radiative cooling at the cloud top limits
the vertical extent of such clouds to the inversion base height. The CII cases, on the other hand, display characteristics
that can be divided into two situations—(1) clouds that only slightly penetrate the temperature inversion and exhibit a microphysical
signal similar to CCI cases, or (2) clouds that extend higher into the inversion and show evidence of a mixed-phase cloud
structure. An important interplay between the mixed-phase structure and an increased potential for turbulent mixing across
the inversion base appears to support the lifetime of CII cases existing within the inversion layer. 相似文献
