A three-dimensional immersed boundary method was implemented into a Large Eddy Simulation (LES) with advanced subgrid-scale modeling capability. In this way, obstacles in the urban atmospheric boundary layer such as buildings and hills could be represented without changing the Cartesian grid. These numerical methods are applied in two urban environment investigations. The first explores the effect of hilly urban morphology on dispersion characteristics in the urban boundary layer. The second investigate the application of wall functions for building convection heat transfer in large eddy simulation. Air flow and dispersion in urban areas are strongly affected by the presence of buildings. In natural settings hills strongly impact dispersion. Five simulations of flow over building arrays over flat terrain and witch of Agnesi hills with maximum slope of 0.26 were conducted to study turbulence and dispersion properties in and above the canopy. While the small hill reduces the shear stress and velocity variance above the urban canopy compared to the flat urban array, the shear stress increases for larger hills. The TKE in the canopy downwind of the hill decreased below the value for the flat urban case, but canopy ventilation for the hilly cases was several times larger than for the flat case, especially near the hill crest. Therefore, urban dispersion models should account for these relatively moderate terrain changes to produce accurate results. In urban energy balance models, convection heat transfer model is often over-simplified by using a uniform convection heat transfer coefficient (CHTC) for each building surface. We consider more complex flow patterns by implementing a wall function to calculate the local CHTC from local velocities provided by LES. Simulations consisting of single building, 3 x 3 building arrays and 6 x 6 building arrays with neutral and unstable conditions were performed. Validation showed similar results as a low Reynolds number simulation resolving the viscous region, but both simulations disagreed with measurements in a wind tunnel. The log-law relation, which is a fundamental assumption underlying many wall models, was found to be accurate for the roof surface velocity and temperature for high building density, but it does not apply to windward and leeward surfaces. Density of buildings also acts as one of most important factors in determining the temperature distribution and buoyancy force in the urban canyon and roughness layer.

The stable boundary layer (SBL) has received less attention in atmospheric field studies, laboratory experiments, and numerical modeling than other states of the atmospheric boundary layer. The low intensity and potential intermittency of turbulence in the SBL make it difficult to measure and characterize its structure. Large-eddy simulation (LES) offers an approach for simulating the SBL and, in particular, its evolution from the onset of surface cooling. Traditional approaches that involve Reynolds-averaged models of turbulence are not able to simulate the stochastic nature of the intermittent turbulence that is associated with the SBL. LES shows promise in this area through its explicit calculation of turbulent eddies at resolved scales. In the LES approach, the Navier-Stokes equations governing the flow are averaged (filtered) over some small interval, such as one or more cells of the computational grid. The grid size is small enough so that large eddies, which carry most of the turbulent energy, are explicitly calculated. The turbulence associated with the subgrid-scale (SGS) eddies is modeled. In the Reynolds-averaging approach, on the other hand, the turbulence model must account for all scales of turbulence. Thus the advantage of LES is that the choice of turbulence parameterization for the SGS turbulence is not nearly as critical as in the Reynolds-averaged approach. Complications faced by turbulence models, such as anisotropy and pressure-strain correlations, are associated mainly with large, energy-containing eddies. LES offers the potential for more realistic simulations since the more complicated features of turbulence are calculated explicitly. The ability of LES to simulate the stochastic behavior of turbulence makes this approach suitable for developing and testing stochastic models of turbulent diffusion. One of the goals of the present work is to provide stochastic datasets to be used in such studies.

A stable atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) develops over land at night due to radiative surface cooling. The state of turbulence in the stable boundary layer (SBL) is determined by the competing forcings of shear production and buoyancy destruction. When both forcings are comparable in strength, the SBL falls into an intermittently turbulent state, where intense turbulent bursts emerge sporadically from an overall quiescent background. This usually occurs on clear nights with weak winds when the SBL is strongly stable. Although turbulent bursts are generally short-lived (half an hour or less), their impact on the SBL is significant since they are responsible for most of the turbulent mixing. The nighttime SBL can be modeled with large-eddy simulation (LES). LES is a turbulence-resolving numerical approach which separates the large-scale energy-containing eddies from the smaller ones based on application of a spatial filter. While the large eddies are explicitly resolved, the small ones are represented by a subfilter-scale (SFS) stress model. Simulation of the SBL is more challenging than the daytime convective boundary layer (CBL) because nighttime turbulent motions are limited by buoyancy stratification, thus requiring fine grid resolution at the cost of immense computational resources. The intermittently turbulent SBL adds additional levels of complexity, requiring the model to not only sustain resolved turbulence during quiescent periods, but also to transition into a turbulent state under appropriate conditions. As a result, LES of the strongly stable SBL potentially requires even finer grid resolution, and has seldom been attempted. This dissertation takes a different approach. By improving the SFS representation of turbulence with a more sophisticated model, intermittently turbulent SBL is simulated, to our knowledge, for the first time in the LES literature. The turbulence closure is the dynamic reconstruction model (DRM), applied under an explicit filtering and reconstruction LES framework. The DRM is a mixed model that consists of subgrid scale (SGS) and resolved subfilter scale (RSFS) components. The RSFS portion is represented by a scale-similarity model that allows for backscatter of energy from the SFS to the mean flow. Compared to conventional closures, the DRM is able to sustain resolved turbulence under moderate stability at coarser resolution (thus saving computational resources). The DRM performs equally well at fine resolution. Under strong stability, the DRM simulates an intermittently turbulent SBL, whereas conventional closures predict false laminar flows. The improved simulation methodology of the SBL has many potential applications in the area of wind energy, numerical weather prediction, pollution modeling and so on. The SBL is first simulated over idealized flat terrain with prescribed forcings and periodic lateral boundaries. A wide range of stability regimes, from weakly to strongly stable conditions, is tested to evaluate model performance. Under strongly stable conditions, intermittency due to mean shear and turbulence interactions is simulated and analyzed. Furthermore, results of the strongly stable SBL are used to improve wind farm siting and nighttime operations. Moving away from the idealized setting, the SBL is simulated over relatively flat terrain at a Kansas site over the Great Plains, where the Cooperative Atmospheric-Surface Exchange Study - 1999 (CASES-99) took place. The LES obtains realistic initial and lateral boundary conditions from a meso-scale model reanalysis through a grid nesting procedure. Shear-instability induced intermittency observed on the night of Oct 5th during CASES-99 is reproduced to good temporal and magnitude agreement. The LES locates the origin of the shear-instability waves in a shallow upwind valley, and uncovers the intermittency mechanism to be wave breaking over a standing wave (formed over a stagnant cold-air bubble) across the valley. Finally, flow over the highly complex terrain of the Owens Valley in California is modeled with a similar nesting procedure. The LES results are validated with observation data from the 2006 Terrain-Induced Rotor Experiment (T-REX). The nested LES reproduces a transient nighttime warming event observed on the valley floor on April 17 during T-REX. The intermittency mechanism is shown to be through slope-valley flow transitions. In addition, a cold-air intrusion from the eastern valley sidewall is simulated. This generates an easterly cross-valley flow, and the associated top-down mixing through breaking Kelvin-Helmholtz billows is analyzed. Finally, the nesting methodology tested and optimized in the CASES-99 and T-REX studies is transferrable to general ABL applications. For example, a nested LES is performed to model daytime methane plume dispersion over a landfill and good results are obtained.

This volume contains a selection of the papers presented at the Eighth Symposium on Turbulent Shear Flows held at the Technical University of Munich, 9-11 September 1991. The first of these biennial international symposia was held at the Pennsylvania State Uni versity, USA, in 1977; subsequent symposia have been held at Imperial College, London, England; the University of California, Davis, USA; the University of Karlsruhe, Ger many; Cornell University, Ithaca, USA; the Paul Sabatier University, Toulouse, France; and Stanford University, California, USA. The purpose of this series of symposia is to provide a forum for the presentation and discussion of new developments in the field of turbulence, especially as related to shear flows of importance in engineering and geo physics. From the 330 extended abstracts submitted for this symposium, 145 papers were presented orally and 60 as posters. Out of these, we have selected twenty-four papers for inclusion in this volume, each of which has been revised and extended in accordance with the editors' recommendations. The following four theme areas were selected after consideration of the quality of the contributions, the importance of the area, and the selection made in earlier volumes: - wall flows, - separated flows, - compressibility effects, - buoyancy, rotation, and curvature effects. As in the past, each section corresponding to the above areas begins with an introduction by an authority in the field that places the individual contributions in context with one another and with related research.

Part of the excitement in boundary-layer meteorology is the challenge associated with turbulent flow - one of the unsolved problems in classical physics. An additional attraction of the filed is the rich diversity of topics and research methods that are collected under the umbrella-term of boundary-layer meteorology. The flavor of the challenges and the excitement associated with the study of the atmospheric boundary layer are captured in this textbook. Fundamental concepts and mathematics are presented prior to their use, physical interpretations of the terms in equations are given, sample data are shown, examples are solved, and exercises are included. The work should also be considered as a major reference and as a review of the literature, since it includes tables of parameterizatlons, procedures, filed experiments, useful constants, and graphs of various phenomena under a variety of conditions. It is assumed that the work will be used at the beginning graduate level for students with an undergraduate background in meteorology, but the author envisions, and has catered for, a heterogeneity in the background and experience of his readers.

Airflow over complex terrain throughout the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) governs the transport and mixing of mass, momentum, and heat. Topography causes obstruction of the airflow and generates airflow distortion and turbulence. Perturbations in land-atmosphere interactions cause various weather phenomena like cold-air pools (CAPs) leading to changes in many aspects of weather and climate that impact the optimal position of wind-turbine, forest-fire behavior, and forecasting, as well as trace-gas and pollutant dispersion. This thesis investigates the flow over complex terrain, specifically double-hill terrain, with new numerical model approaches. The first study utilizes the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model with large eddy simulations (LES) and the immersed-boundary method (IBM) to improve the simulations of the flow and recirculation regions over steep double-hill terrain. The gap distance controls the flow distribution behind both hills. The upwind hill has a significant influence on the second hill. When the gap distance is too small, the flow after the upwind hill cannot regain its momentum. The second study examines the flow distribution over a forested double-hill and the impact of the gap distance between two hills on scalar transport (CO2 and H2O). This study uses the WRF-LES model coupled with a new multiple-layer canopy module (MCANOPY module). We find that flow recirculation is the primary factor dominating scalar transport. Scalars are transported and trapped in both recirculation regions and accumulated on the lee sides of both hills. Our simulation shows the occurrence of two vortices on the lee side of the upstream hill enhances the accumulation of scalars in the valleys. In the end, we extend our work from the first study to understand flow patterns over a realistic double-hill topography. Results show that the valley gap distance is so small that the recirculation region in the valley between two hills cannot fully develop. Additionally, the WRF-IBM captures the structure of microscale flows that other models have not captured in the previous studies.

It is a truism that turbulence is an unsolved problem, whether in scientific, engin eering or geophysical terms. It is strange that this remains largely the case even though we now know how to solve directly, with the help of sufficiently large and powerful computers, accurate approximations to the equations that govern tur bulent flows. The problem lies not with our numerical approximations but with the size of the computational task and the complexity of the solutions we gen erate, which match the complexity of real turbulence precisely in so far as the computations mimic the real flows. The fact that we can now solve some turbu lence in this limited sense is nevertheless an enormous step towards the goal of full understanding. Direct and large-eddy simulations are these numerical solutions of turbulence. They reproduce with remarkable fidelity the statistical, structural and dynamical properties of physical turbulent and transitional flows, though since the simula tions are necessarily time-dependent and three-dimensional they demand the most advanced computer resources at our disposal. The numerical techniques vary from accurate spectral methods and high-order finite differences to simple finite-volume algorithms derived on the principle of embedding fundamental conservation prop erties in the numerical operations. Genuine direct simulations resolve all the fluid motions fully, and require the highest practical accuracy in their numerical and temporal discretisation. Such simulations have the virtue of great fidelity when carried out carefully, and repre sent a most powerful tool for investigating the processes of transition to turbulence.
