A Generalized Mixing Length Closure for Eddy‐Diffusivity Mass‐Flux Schemes of Turbulence and Convection

Abstract Because of their limited spatial resolution, numerical weather prediction and climate models have to rely on parameterizations to represent atmospheric turbulence and convection. Historically, largely independent approaches have been used to represent boundary layer turbulence and convectio...
