Electrodynamic Model of the Atmospheric Convective-Turbulent Surface Layer

  • Published:
Radiophysics and Quantum Electronics Aims and scope

We developed a nonstationary electrodynamic model of the atmospheric convective-turbulent surface layer. As a result of numerical calculations, spatio-temporal distributions of the aero-ion concentration, electric field, conduction current density, and space charge density were obtained under various physical conditions. Depending on the flow direction, convective transfer can strengthen or weaken the effect of turbulent mixing on the electrical state of the atmospheric surface layer.
