Abstract
The paper analyzes structural functions of air temperature in the ground surface layer over an inhomogeneous surface. Three main types of structural functions are separated based on processing of experimental data. Parameterization models for these three types of structural functions are proposed in the shift range corresponding to the inertial range of turbulence. The frequency of occurrence of the separated types of structural functions in different seasons at the observation site over an urbanized territory is estimated.
