Progressive emergence of canopy gravity waves during the afternoon–evening transition
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.Large‐eddy simulations are used to investigate the afternoon‐to‐evening transition of turbulence over a forest canopy and its coupling with atmospheric boundary‐layer dynamics. As surface cooling strengthens stability and weakens near‐canopy winds, canopy turbulence transitions progressively to internal gravity waves that dominate the evening flow ...
