On the Atmospheric Turbulence (1st paper)

[摘要] Nineteen measurements of the vertical distribution of the wind velocity and the temperature are described. The distribution of the wind velocity was found to be well represented by a very simple formula of the logarithmic type: where u denotes the wind velocity, Z the height and a and Z0 are constants, a seems to depend only on the velocity at a given height and not on the stability and Z0 varies according to the stability, i.e. Z0 increases from a smaller value in the unstable atmosphere to a larger one in the stable atmosphere.
