摘要
Turbulent atmospheric boundary layers contain a range of eddy sizes, the largest of which can vertically advect air across large distances with little dilution. This nonlocal mixing can be described by a transilient matrix, where each element indicates what fraction of air at a destination height comes from any source height. Parameterization of this matrix allows transilient turbulence theory to be used to forecast boundary-layer evolution.
