title = "Application of a new spectral theory of stably stratified turbulence to the atmospheric boundary layer over sea ice",
abstract = "A new spectral closure model of stably stratified turbulence is used to develop a K - ε model suitable for applications to the atmospheric boundary layer. This K - ε model utilizes vertical viscosity and diffusivity obtained from the spectral theory. In the ε equation, the Coriolis parameter-dependent formulation of the coefficient C1 suggested by Detering and Etling is generalized to include the dependence on the Brunt-V{\"a}is{\"a}l{\"a} frequency, N. The new K - ε model is tested in simulations of the ABL over sea ice and compared with observations from BASE as simulated in large-eddy simulations by Kosovic and Curry, and observations from SHEBA.",
