TLDR
In this article, an up-to-date summary of the current knowledge of the statistical characteristics of atmospheric turbulence and an introduction to the methods required to apply these statistics to practical engineering problems is presented.Abstract:
Presents, in a single volume, an up-to-date summary of the current knowledge of the statistical characteristics of atmospheric turbulence and an introduction to the methods required to apply these statistics to practical engineering problems. Covers basic physics and statistics, statistical properties emphasizing their behavior close to the ground, and applications for engineers.read more

Oceanic vertical mixing: A review and a model with a nonlocal boundary layer parameterization
TL;DR: In this article, a new parameterization of oceanic boundary layer mixing is developed to accommodate some of this physics, including a scheme for determining the boundary layer depth h, where the turbulent contribution to the vertical shear of a bulk Richardson number is parameterized.

Sonic anemometer tilt correction algorithms
TL;DR: In this paper, the sensitivity of anemometer-derived stress estimates to the tilt of the anemometers is investigated, and three methods for determining the tilt angles relative to a mean streamline coordinate system and for computing the tilt-corrected stresses are compared.

Tools for quality assessment of surface-based flux measurements
Th. Foken,Bodo Wichura +1 more
TL;DR: A scheme for the characterization of the quality of direct turbulence measurements using the Navier-Stokes equations, which are the basis of direct surface-based measurements of turbulent fluxes via the eddy correlation method.

General model for representing variable speed wind turbines in power system dynamics simulations
TL;DR: In this paper, a model that can be used to represent all types of variable speed wind turbines in power system dynamics simulations is presented, and some results obtained after incorporation of the model in PSS/E, a widely used power system simulation software package, are presented and compared with measurements.
