- the mixed layer top is typically:
- near the inversion top in the clear boundary layer
- .
- near the cloud base for Cu-topped boundary layers
- .
- near the cloud top for Sc‑topped boundary layers.
- the computed strength of the temperature inversion is used to distinguish between Sc and Cu topped boundary layers.
- entrainment at the top of the mixed layer is proportional to the surface buoyancy flux (20%) for all types of boundary layers. Additionally for Sc, there is an increased contribution to turbulent mixing from radiatively driven entrainment.
- all cloud processes are handled by the cloud scheme.
