Atmospheric Modeling, Data Assimilation and Predictability
TL;DR: A comprehensive text and reference work on numerical weather prediction, first published in 2002, covers not only methods for numerical modeling, but also the important related areas of data assimilation and predictability.

Bulk Parameterization of Air–Sea Fluxes: Updates and Verification for the COARE Algorithm
TL;DR: The Coupled Ocean-Atmosphere Response Experiment (COARE) bulk algorithm was published in 1996, and it has become one of the most frequently used algorithms in the air-sea interaction community.

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.

Turbulence in plant canopies
TL;DR: In this article, the mean velocity profile is inflected, second moments are strongly inhomogeneous with height, skewnesses are large, and second-moment budgets are far from local equilibrium.
