Abstract: Sustained observations of oceanographic and
atmospheric boundary layer conditions are imperative for the investigation of tropical cyclone genesis, for numerical model input to predict track and intensity, and in general, for many environmental monitoring needs.

Study and research in the department include topics such
as atmospheric boundary layer and turbulence, atmospheric chemistry and physics, atmospheric dynamics, radiative transfer, oceanography, clouds and cloud physics, mesoscale and synoptic meteorology & more.
Oxidation by chlorine (Cl) atoms in the
marine atmospheric boundary layer is suggested as an additional sink for CH4, possibly constituting an additional loss of about 19 Tg (CH4) yr — 1 (Gupta et al., 1997; Tyler et al., 2000; Platt et al., 2004; Allan et al., 2005).
That heated surface air then rose into
the atmospheric boundary layer — the lowest level of the troposphere — doubling its height to more than 4 kilometers, and creating a thick blanket of heat.
But Ferri and her colleagues had hoped to study
the atmospheric boundary layer close to the surface, where convection plays a role, something that is particularly hard for orbiting sensors to probe.
Suttle and colleagues at the University of Granada and San Diego State University wanted to know how much of that material is carried up above
the atmospheric boundary layer above 2,500 to 3,000 metres.

The equivalent to a D - O event in
the atmospheric boundary layer occurs when large amounts of «potential» instability accumulate, and the instability is then released in the form of violent thunderstorms.
In
the atmospheric boundary layer motion is quite routinely up and down, as well as horizontal.
A radiative - conductive model is constructed to study short - term effects of various carbon dioxide concentrations on
the atmospheric boundary layer for different seasons.
His areas of specialty include the structure and energetics of
the atmospheric boundary layer, turbulence, and atmospheric measurements.
It is the oceanic /
atmospheric boundary layer.

The current research profile encompasses water resource modelling, the assimilation of data into forecasting models and the affects on urbanization on
the atmospheric boundary layer.
If the wind speed is high and vertical mixing in
the atmospheric boundary layer is strong the temperature gradient will be small.

Model calculations suggest that almost half of the global cloud condensation nuclei in
the atmospheric boundary layer may originate from the nucleation of aerosols from trace condensable vapours4, although the sensitivity of the number of cloud condensation nuclei to changes of nucleation rate may be small5, 6.
A substantial source of cloud condensation nuclei in
the atmospheric boundary layer is thought to originate from the nucleation of trace sulphuric acid vapour.
However, while the horizontal resolution of 2.5 ° (T42) or better in the atmospheric component of many coupled models is probably adequate to resolve most important features, the typical vertical resolution of around 20 levels is probably too low, particularly in
the atmospheric boundary layer and near the tropopause.
