Turbulent structure in the bora and stable boundary layer

An eigenvector analysis of the velocity-temperature correlation matrix is applied to clear-air turbulence measured by aircraft in the Bora. The eigenvectors are identified with the main eddies of the turbulence. This study attempts to infer the three-dimensional structure of these eddies. The result...
