摘要

This manuscript describes numerical experiments investigating the influence of 2-30-km striplike heterogeneity on wet and dry convective boundary layers coupled to the land surface. The striplike heterogeneity is shown to dramatically alter the structure of the convective boundary layer by inducing significant organized circulations that modify turbulent statistics. The impact, strength, and extent of the organized motions depend critically on the scale of the heterogeneity X relative to the boundary layer height z(i). The coupling with the land surface modifies the surface fluxes and hence the circulations resulting in some differences compared to previous studies using fixed surface forcing. Because of the coupling, surface fluxes in the middle of the patches are small compared to the patch edges. At large heterogeneity scales (lambda/z(i) similar to 18) horizontal surface-flux gradients within each patch are strong enough to counter the surface-flux gradients between wet and dry patches allowing the formation of small cells within the patch coexisting with the large-scale patch-induced circulations. The strongest patch-induced motions occur in cases with 4 < lambda/z(i) < 9 because of strong horizontal pressure gradients across the wet and dry patches. Total boundary layer turbulence kinetic energy increases significantly for surface heterogeneity at scales between lambda/z(i) = 4 and 9; however, entrainment rates for all cases are largely unaffected by the striplike heterogeneity.Velocity and scalar fields respond differently to variations of heterogeneity scale. The patch-induced motions have little influence on total vertical scalar flux, but the relative contribution to the flux from organized motions compared to background turbulence varies with heterogeneity scale. Patch-induced motions are shown to dramatically impact point measurements in a free-convective boundary layer. The magnitude and sign of this impact depends on the location of the measurement within the region of heterogeneity.
