  • Chapter
Air Pollution Modeling and Its Application X

Part of the book series: NATO · Challenges of Modern Society ((NATS,volume 18))

Abstract

In atmospheric surface layer studies, the turbulent flux of variable A is approximated by the formula (Stull, 1988; Garratt, 1992):

$$\overline {wa} = - \frac{{\kappa zu * }}{{{\phi _a}(\zeta )}}\frac{{\partial {\rm A}}}{{\partial z}}$$
