The low‐level katabatic jet height versus Monin–Obukhov height
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, 2007AbstractIn this short note we discuss a long‐standing problem in modelling the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) over complex terrain: namely, an excessive use of the Monin–Obukhov length scale LMO. This issue becomes increasingly relevant with the ever‐increasing resolution of numerical weather‐prediction and climate models, which typically use LMO in ...

Raptor responses to low-level jet aircraft and sonic booms
Environmental Pollution, 1991We estimated effects of low-level military jet aircraft and mid- to high-altitude sonic booms (actual and simulated) on nesting peregrine falcons (Falco peregrinus) and seven other raptors by observing their responses to test stimuli, determining nesting success for the test year, and evaluating site reoccupancy rates for the year following the tests ...

Low-level Jet at White Sands Missile Range
Journal of Applied Meteorology, 1966Abstract Wind data collected at White Sands Missile Range, New Mexico, frequently show a sharp maximum in the wind speed profile below 3000 ft. This low-level maximum is often supergeostrophic and associated with large values of wind shear in the lower levels.

Advances in low-level jet research and future prospects
Acta Meteorologica Sinica, 2014The low-level jet (LLJ) is closely related to severe rainfall events, air pollution, wind energy utilization, aviation safety, sandstorms, forest fire, and other weather and climate phenomena. Therefore, it has attracted considerable attention since its discovery. Scientists have carried out many studies on LLJs and made significant achievements during

Observations of Low-level Jet Physics and Impacts
2020The Great Plains low-level jet (LLJ) is a planetary boundary layer phenomenon of strong winds spanning thousands of square kilometers. These LLJs are primarily nocturnal, and an event?s lifetime can exceed 12 hours. LLJ wind speeds can reach 30 m/s within the lowest several hundred meters of the atmosphere. The formation mechanisms of the strongest and

Importance of Low-Level Jets to Climate: A Review
Journal of Climate, 1996Abstract Low-level jets (LLJs) occur frequently in many parts of the world. These low-level wind speed maxima are important for both the horizontal and vertical fluxes of temperature and moisture and have been found to be associated with the development and evolution of deep convection.

The Low-Level Jet as a Western Boundary Current
Monthly Weather Review, 1976Abstract The low-level jet which flows across the equator and up the Somali coast is considered as a western boundary current of the East African mountain chain. The jet is assumed to be forced by the low-level divergence in the subtropical high pressure belt of the Southern Hemisphere and convergence in the monsoon trough.
