Abstract

PUKK is an acronym for Project zur Untersuchung des Küsten- klimas = Project for Investigation of the Coastal Climate. There-fore, PUKK was planned to investigate the different structures of Atmospheric Boundary Layers (ABL) above sea and land surfaces and to study the transition in the ABL behavior perpendicular to the coast /KR82/.
