Using Jenoptik CHM15K and Vaisala CL31 Ceilometers, J. Atmos. Ocean. Ordinal Variables that have an inherent order to the relationship among the different categories an implied ordering of the categories (levels) quantitative distance between levels is unknown distances between the levels may not be the same meaning of different levels may not be the same for different individuals Note: The scale of measurement for most ordinal variables is called a Likert scale. For specific scan patterns, the variance of radial velocity (i.e. During unstable conditions, the aerosol-based MBLH forms partly in response to recent mixing processes. As vertical mixing can already be reduced for a certain region below a positive vertical gradient in air temperature, the latter criterion can be a more accurate indicator of MBLH.

Improved monitoring of the lowest few hundred metres of the atmosphere at high vertical resolution can be achieved by operating active remote-sensing profilers at a low elevation angle (e.g.

IRS and MWR provide partially complementary information despite their substantial similarities, given the higher vertical information content of IRS in the ABL and the capability of the MWR to gather information within and above clouds and during light precipitation.

Significant advances in ground-based remote-sensing measurement technology and algorithm development now allow for continuous profiling of the entire ABL vertical extent (ranging from a few tens of metres to >3km or even higher, depending on geographic settings and synoptic conditions) at high temporal and vertical resolution (Illingworth etal.,2019; Cimini etal.,2020) and automatic detection of ABL sub-layer heights from different atmospheric quantities (CollaudCoen etal.,2014; Duncan etal.,2022).

Fields such as health care, biology, chemistry, physics, education, engineering, business, and economics make extensive use of statistical inference. Planetary Boundary Layer Parameterization Schemes and Their Sensitivity in 2). Meteorol., 2015, 18, https://doi.org/10.1155/2015/853861,

Many of the methods of statistical inference are described in this article. The rather low-range resolution of the MWR near the ABLH (Sect. If winds are sampled at very high temporal frequency, higher-order moments, such as velocity variances (Sect. Ocean. Res., 117, D17106. Meas. H H JFIF H H Adobe_CM Adobe d A common ABL classification is the delineation between cloudy and cloud-free conditions, which can be accomplished using surface radiation data, using the cloud information reported by an ALC, or by exploiting any remotely sensed profile signal sensitive to clouds (Sect.

Where climatology statistics are available from independent measurements (e.g. (2010a) performed spectral analysis on high-resolution ABLH observations to characterise entrainment processes under different atmospheric stability conditions.
