Planetary Boundary Layer Scheme

A scheme class used to represent boundary-layer mixing and near-surface fluxes in numerical atmospheric models.

It handles boundary-layer fluxes such as sensible heat, latent heat, and momentum exchange, together with vertical diffusion effects.

Implemented in WRF. See WRF planetary boundary layer schemes.
