Coconut Creek (Florida), ISSN 0749-0208.This study aims to further verify (ED) a region as well need for localization based on measurements from Tower (ASIT). The ducts tended be more frequent pronounced offshore winds than onshore winds, especially case combining unstable conditions (100% 9.5 m/8.7 m). They occurred lowest frequency (56.4%) thickness (4.9 m/3.5 m) stable winds. ED ψ functions Edson04 (or Fairall03) SHEBA07 delivered best overall performance terms predicting local ducts. Its considerable advantages over COARE 3.0 BYC underscore importance given region. localized was encouraging but it encountered problems extreme under conditions, when available improvements failed. reinforcement marine inner-boundary layer (MIBL) preexisting considered main reason this and, hence, future solution.
