Modeling of the Arctic boundary layer: Comparisons with measurements from the Arctic Ocean Expedition 1996
During the recent 3 month Arctic Ocean Expedition (AOE-96) to the North Pole during the summer of 1996 an enormous amount of data collected on the Arctic planetary boundary layer. In preparation for the expedition, the authors have developed an expanded and quite flexible 1-D computer code based on...
