Abstract
Abstract Simultaneous measurements of temperature and wind profiles in the surface boundary layer (below 10-m elevation over a beach and below 100-m elevation over an inland site) under the effect of the sea breeze were made near Fort Walton Beach, Fla. We found that the sea breeze in the atmospheric boundary layer is in the free convection regime and that observed sea-breeze wind and temperature profiles behave according to minus one-third power laws. These experiments also substantiate evidence that the Prandtl-Obukhov-Priestley prediction of the free convection regime is a valid one under appropriate atmospheric conditions.
