Estimation of Turbulent Triplet Covariances for Bora Flows

Abstract: Bora is a strong or severe, relatively cold, gusty wind that usually blows from the northastern quadrant at the east coast of the Adriatic Sea. In this study bora’s turbulence triplet covariances were analysed, for the first time, for bora flows. The measurements used were obtained from the measuring tower on Pometeno brdo (“Swept-Away Hill”), in the hinterland of the city of Split, Croatia. From April 2010 until June 2011 three components of wind speed and sonic temperature were measured. The measurements wer… Show more

“…The tower is located in a 24 hectare area typical of the Pampa biome, characterized by low herbaceous grassland vegetation ≈8 km south of the terrain discontinuity (Figure 1). Initially, 12 levels of sonic anemometers were installed at different heights: 1.5, 3,5,7,9,11,14,17,20,23,26, and 30 m, and 15 levels to measure air temperature and relative humidity at 0.5, 1, 2.25, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15.5, 18.5, 21.5, 24.5, 28, and 29.5 m. Turbulence observations of wind components and sonic temperature were sampled at a frequency of 10 Hz, while air temperature and relative humidity were sampled each minute. Means, fluxes, variances, and other statistical moments were determined using a 30 min standard time window.…”

“…One manifestation of this type of change in the turbulent field is provoked by topographically induced mesoscale flow [2,3]. Particularly, downslope flows are associated with strong wind and intense turbulence production [2,[4][5][6][7][8][9]. Understanding downslope winds (DWs) and their interaction with turbulence are of great importance for predicting the transport and dispersion of pollutants and for developing parameterizations used in weather and climate numerical models.…”
