Comparison of Observed and Predicted Slope Winds
Nocturnal drainage winds begin when air adjacent to an inclined surface flows down the slop because it is cooled more than the free air at some distance horizontally from the surface. These slope winds merge and are channeled by the topography to form the larger-scale drainage or mountain winds. This paper discusses the slope flow phase of the drainage wind. The predictions of a simple model for flow down a two-dimensional slope are compared to observations of the drainage wind obtained during the July 1979 ASCOT field study near Middletown, CA.
