Atmospheric boundary layers in storms: advanced theory and modelling applications
Zilitinkevich, Sergej S.; Esau, Igor N.; Baklanov, A. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2005-03-29)Turbulent planetary boundary layers (PBLs) control the exchange processes between the atmosphere and the ocean/land. The key problems of PBL physics are to determine the PBL height, the momentum, energy and matter fluxes ... -
Sensitivity of simulated wintertime Arctic atmosphere to vertical resolution in the ARPEGE/IFS model
Byrkjedal, Øyvind; Esau, Igor N.; Kvamstø, Nils Gunnar (Journal article, 2008)The current state of the art general circulation models, including several of those used by the IPCC, show considerable disagreement in simulating present day high latitude climate. This is of major concern and reduces the ... -
Vertical structure of recent arctic warming from observed data and reanalysis products
Alexeev, V. A.; Esau, Igor N.; Polyakov, Igor V.; Byam, S. J.; Sorokina, Svetlana (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-03)Spatiotemporal patterns of recent (1979–2008) air temperature trends are evaluated using three reanalysis datasets and radiosonde data. Our analysis demonstrates large discrepancies between the reanalysis datasets, possibly ...
