Abstract

When turbulence is well developed, the diffusivity tends to quickly destroy other flow variability modes, so that the turbulent processes become dominant. However, in cases of weak or intermittent turbulence the turbulence scales are restricted to small values, both spatially and temporally. Non-turbulent processes can become important in such cases. This is particularly possible in the Stable Boundary Layer, some studies have focused on non-turbulent flow modes such as submeso, for example. Non-turbulent motions occur simultaneously on other scales and may to dominate the fluctuations of the horizontal flow and vertical flux The physical forcing of submeso flow is still poorly understood, but it is believed to depend significantly on local conditions such as topography and vegetation. The hypothesis assumed in this paper is that obstacles of different nature and dimensions, such as trees, buildings and topography elements affect different flow scales and analyze how turbulent and submeso processes are affected differently.
