TL;DR: In this article, a summary of observations and modeling efforts on surface fluxes, carried out at Cabauw in The Netherlands and during MESOGERS-84 in the south of France, is given.

TL;DR: In the Project for Intercomparison of Land-Surface Parameterization Schemes phase 2a experiment, meteorological data for the year 1987 from Cabauw, the Netherlands, were used as inputs to 23 land-surface flux schemes designed for use in climate and weather models as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe and interpret the 1987 data from Cabauw, the Netherlands, which can be used to test land surface schemes in stand-alone mode, and assess the reliability of model data by exploiting the redundancy in the observations and by comparing the model output with the data when both are available.

TL;DR: In this paper, a linear model for neutral surface-layer flow over complex terrain is presented, which makes it possible to make high-resolution computations for an arbitrary distribution of surface roughness and topography.

TL;DR: In this paper, a linear model for neutral surface-layer flow over complex terrain is presented, which combines the simplicity and computational efficiency of linear methods with flexibility for closure schemes of finite-difference methods.
