Abstract

The Cooperative Atmosphere-Surface Exchange Study-99 (CASES-99) is a field experiment which was designed to study stable nocturnal boundary layers. Datas from the 60-m tower, six 10m towers, available high resolution Doppler lidar (HRDL), and mini-sodar data were used for the study. It was found that the relationship between the wind speed at 5 m and the standard deviation of the thermocouple temperature within a hour was scattered. It was also found that stable boundary layered occured when the wind speed at the highest observation level was less than 7 ms -1.
