Characteristics of Atmospheric Surface Layer and Heat Budget over the Arctic Ice in Summer
Abstract Observational data from August 19 to 24, 1999 during the first Chinese arctic research exploration are analyzed and the vertical distribution of meteorological variables in the surface layer and the heat budget problem over ice in the Arctic region in summer are discussed. The humidity of s...
