Consider a stable nocturnal boudary layer in a 12 hr night. The wind is blowing at 5 m/s and the surface is cooled with a kinematic heat flux of -0.02 K.m/s. The residual layer potential temperature is theta=25 degree centigrade.
a) What is the potential temperature profile at the end of the night?
b) Plot the evolution of the height, h, of the stable boundary layer and the strength, delta thetas, as a function of time.
