11. Convective boundary layers. Entrainment and gravity waves. Mixed-layer models. K-profile parametrizations.
12. Stable boundary layers. Inertial oscillations and gravity waves, global intermittency. Stability corrections to K-theory and subgrid-scale models, total-energy models.
13. Moisture. Drying and moistening regimes, Bowen ratio and cloud formation.
14. Special/optional topics: Karman-Howarth equation; Boundary-layer clouds; diurnal cycle and other transients; gravity currents (cold pools); internal boundary layers.
Lernziel: This course is an introduction to the theory and the modeling of turbulence and boundary layers and their role in the climate system. This includes the discussion of the properties of turbulent flows, their statistical description, turbulent fluxes, the Richardson cascade and Kolmogorov theory. The students also learn the typical profiles and dominant processes in convective and stable boundary layers, surface effects and entrainment. The modeling block introduces mixed-layer models, RANS, large eddy simulation and direct numerical simulation.

Zusätzliche Hinweise zu Prüfungen: Attending lectures (60h), self-studies (90h), exam preparation (30h)
The students are expected to hand-in written reports of take-home assignments approximately every 2-3 weeks, working in groups of 2 or 3 people to foster teamwork. This will contribute to 30% of the final grade; 70% is the final exam.
