title = "The development of a boundary layer turbulence database for wake vortex applications",
abstract = "This paper describes results from extensive validation of wake-vortex environmental simulations at the Dallas Fort-Worth International Airport (DFW) against observations taken using the Aircraft Vortex Observing and Spacing System (AVOSS) during the 17-20 September 1997 field campaign. The effect of horizontal and vertical grid spacing, initialization time, and formulation of characteristic mixing length scales within the newly developed Terminal-Area PBL Prediction System-2 (TAPPS-2) are detailed. Results from the validation simulations were then used to develop an appropriate TAPPS-2 modeling configuration for a limited terminal-area mesoscale climatology at St. Louis-Lambert International Airport (STL) for the July-December 2004 period. Preliminary results, with emphasis on statistical quantities and analysis, are discussed for wake-vortex forecasting applications from a mesoscale model.",
