Abstract

This work contains results connected with boundary layer structure and dynamics in Far East ocean–continent zone in summertime by means of aerosol lidar. Mean values of PBL height, top of the convective layer and mean height of the nocturnal layer are presented. As the example of several summer days, specific features of the PBL structure and dynamics are identified, presented and analyzed. Maximal values of breeze circulation heights are also presented.
