Low-stratus Boundary Layers

Low-Stratus Boundary Layers is a meteorological construct denoting a type of atmospheric boundary layer characterized by the persistent presence of a shallow, horizontally extensive stratus cloud deck that forms and sustains within a stably stratified layer near the Earth's surface, primarily driven by radiative cooling, turbulent mixing, and cloud-top entrainment processes unique to low-cloud regimes.
