A Climatological Study of the Nocturnal Boundary Layer over a Complex-Terrain Station

Two years of Doppler sodar measurements are used to study the time–height structure of the nocturnal boundary layer (NBL), its seasonal variation, and the characteristics of different types of NBL. A total of 220 clear-sky nights during which the inversion layer is clearly visible on a sodar echogra...
