Planetary Boundary Layer Models

Planetary Boundary Layer (PBL) Models are scientific tools used to understand the lowest part of the Earth's atmosphere, where most weather occurs and where the surface interacts with the air. These models simulate how heat, moisture, and pollutants move between the Earth's surface and the atmosphere, influenced by factors like sunlight, terrain, and weather patterns. They help predict weather, air quality, and climate changes by providing detailed insights into near-surface atmospheric processes crucial for environmental monitoring and forecasting.
