Relating urban boundary layer structure to upwind terrain for the Salfex campaign (2008)
Journal Article
Barlow, J., Rooney, G., von Hünerbein, S., & Bradley, S. (2008). Relating urban boundary layer structure to upwind terrain for the Salfex campaign. Boundary-Layer Meteorology, 127(2), 173-191. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10546-007-9261-y

Profiles of wind and turbulence over an urban area evolve with fetch in response to surface characteristics. Sodar measurements, taken on 22nd April 2002 during the Salfex campaign, are here related to upstream terrain. A logarithmic layer up to z=65...
