Abstract:The mixing of air layers, wind shear components, mountain waves, aerosol particles, and other pollutants causes rotational turbulence that affects the lowest and densest layer of the earth's surface troposphere. This turbulence results in a significant change in the height of the convective boundary layer (CBLH) over a day. To analyze the behavior of the convective boundary layer, a statistical technique is used to observe the variation in peak positions of Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) back-scatter sign… Show more
