The mixing height is one of the most important parameters in air pollution studies since it determines the vertical extent of the layer in which pollutants are mixed and dispersed. In this study, the temporal evolution of the Mixed Layer, for different meteorological conditions during daytime-nightime transition, has been evaluated by a semi-empirical estimate of boundary layer parameters like the Monin-Obukhov and the roughness length z0. Preliminary results mainly based on data from Dodge City (Kansas) and from Florence (Italy) are presented.

Abstract
The mixing height is one of the most important parameters in air pollution studies since it determines the vertical extent of the layer in which pollutants are mixed and dispersed. In this study, the temporal evolution of the Mixed Layer, for different meteorological conditions during daytime-nightime transition, has been evaluated by a semi-empirical estimate of boundary layer parameters like the Monin-Obukhov and the roughness length z0. Preliminary results mainly based on data from Dodge City (Kansas) and from Florence (Italy) are presented.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
