The velocity components of the atmospheric wind typically have a power spectral density (PSD) with a slope of -5/3 in an inertial subrange of frequencies, roughly from 0.01 to 10 Hz depending on the wind speed and stability. As passive scalars, atmospheric temperature and humidity have a relatively small direct effect on the winds, and they also typically have a -5/3 slope in this frequency range. Atmospheric aerosol particles are ...
A complete and comprehensive description of the high resolution wind (HRW) model is presented. The HRW model has been in development at the U.S. Army Research Laboratory, formerly U.S. Army Atmospheric Sciences Laboratory, since 1978. This model is a two-dimensional, diagnostic atmospheric surface-layer wind model with a horizontal grid spacing of the order of 100 m over a domain of about 5 by 5 km. It uses Gauss? principle of ...
