Planetary Boundary Layer Parameterization

Planetary Boundary Layer Parameterization is a modeling framework within atmospheric science that represents subgrid-scale vertical fluxes of heat, moisture, and momentum in the lowest part of the atmosphere, distinguishing itself by specifically accounting for turbulent processes driven by surface forcing and shear instability in numerical weather prediction and climate models.
