Abstract

The temporal variation of the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) over Jerusalem is accurately measured by means of a lidar system. The findings are explained and discussed based on the specific synoptic situation of typical summer days in the Middle East. The different behavior of the ABL near the seashore and inland is stressed. The measurement technique is also used to detect the entrainment zone and its development over Jerusalem. -Authors
