英文摘要 | Two contrasting flow regimes exist in the stable boundary layer (SBL), as evidenced from both observational and modeling studies. In general, numerical schemes such as those used in numerical weather prediction and climate models (NWPCs) reproduce a transition between SBL regimes. However, the characteristics of such a transition depend on the turbulence parameterizations and stability functions used to represent the eddy diffusivity in the models. The main goal of the present study is to detail how the two SBL regimes occur in single-column models (SCMs) by analyzing the SBL structure and its dependence on external parameters. Two different turbulence closure orders (first order and an E–l model) and two types of stability functions (short and long tail) are considered. The control exerted by the geostrophic wind and the surface cooling rate on the model SBL regimes is addressed. The model flow presents a three-layer structure: a fully turbulent, weakly stable layer (WSL) next to the surface; a very stable layer (VSL) above that; and a laminar layer above the other two and toward the domain top. It is shown that the WSL and VSL are related to both SBL regimes, respectively. Furthermore, the numerically simulated SBL presents the two-layer structure regardless of the turbulence parameterization order and stability function used. The models also reproduce other features reported in recent observational studies: an S-shaped dependence of the thermal gradient on the mean wind speed and an independence of the vertical gradient of friction velocity on the mean wind speed. |
