A note on local and non-local properties of turbulence in the bora flow
On the basis of two-month measurements of the bora wind at Senj, Croatia, with a 1 s temporal resolution, properties of the bora turbulence are inspected using the records of three bora episodes. The spectrum is divided into two parts: high-frequency turbulence (periods less than 1 min) and the low-...

description | On the basis of two-month measurements of the bora wind at Senj, Croatia, with a 1 s temporal resolution, properties of the bora turbulence are inspected using the records of three bora episodes. The spectrum is divided into two parts: high-frequency turbulence (periods less than 1 min) and the low-frequency part (periods between 1 and 10 min) where pulsations appear. We have found that the high-frequency turbulence is generated locally by surface roughness and local wind shear. On the other hand, the low-frequency turbulence, i.e. the pulsations, seems to be independent of the local properties and can therefore be treated as an organized non-local effect. This is in accordance with the studies of the pulsations in the Boulder downslope windstorm. |
