stability z/L z/L ¨ [-] [-]<br />

Interaction of micrometeorological atmospheric stability with change of wind direction<br />

down (SE) or up (NW) Kongsfjord valley<br />

Forced by change of thermal meso-scale atmospheric circulation pattern or synoptic<br />

weather situation around Spitsbergen<br />

Affected by<br />

mountainous Islands covered by glaciers and sea-water filled Fjords<br />
