Upslope Flows

Upslope Flows is a thermally driven atmospheric boundary-layer wind phenomenon characterized by the ascent of air parallel to terrain slope during daytime heating, distinguishing it from other slope wind regimes by its diurnal timing, directionality, and reliance on surface-induced convective instability.
