Journal ArticleDOI
Boundary layer dynamics over London, UK, as observed using Doppler lidar during REPARTEE-II
Janet F. Barlow,T. M. Dunbar,Eiko Nemitz,Curtis R. Wood,Martin Gallagher,Fay Davies,Fay Davies,Ewan O'Connor,Ewan O'Connor,Roy M. Harrison +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, Doppler lidar observations of turbulence profiles in the centre of London, UK, as part of the second REPARTEE campaign in autumn 2007 were reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Turbulent flow at 190 m height above London during 2006-2008: A climatology and the applicability of similarity theory
Curtis R. Wood,A. Lacser,A. Lacser,Janet F. Barlow,Anil Padhra,Stephen E. Belcher,Eiko Nemitz,Carole Helfter,Daniela Famulari,C. S. B. Grimmond +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the applicability of local similarity theory (as developed over rural terrain) is tested using observations of flow from a sonic anemometer located at 190.3 m height in London, U.K. using about 6500 h of data.
Journal ArticleDOI
Controls of carbon dioxide concentrations and fluxes above central London
Carole Helfter,Daniela Famulari,Gavin Phillips,Janet F. Barlow,Curtis R. Wood,C. S. B. Grimmond,Eiko Nemitz +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, Eddy-covariance measurements of carbon dioxide fluxes were taken continuously between October 2006 and May 2008 at 190 m height in central London (UK) to quantify emissions and study their controls.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fraction of natural area as main predictor of net CO2 emissions from cities
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluate the net urban contribution to CO2emissions by performing a meta-analysis of all available 14 annual CO2budget studies, based on direct flux measurements using the eddy-covariance technique which excludes all strong point sources.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dispersion Experiments in Central London: The 2007 DAPPLE project
Curtis R. Wood,S Arnold,Ahmed A. Balogun,Janet F. Barlow,Stephen E. Belcher,Rex Britter,Hong Cheng,Adrian Dobre,Justin J. N. Lingard,Damien Martin,Marina Neophytou,Fredrik K. Petersson,Alan Robins,Dudley E. Shallcross,R. J. Smalley,James Tate,Alison S. Tomlin,Iain R. White +17 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe progress from a major U.K. project, Dispersion of Air Pollution and its Penetration into the Local Environment (DAPPLE), focusing on the movement of airborne pollutants in cities by developing a greater understanding of atmospheric flow and dispersion within urban street networks.
