A simple model for the development of submesoscale perturbations in the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) is proposed. The growth of perturbations is associated with the shear algebraic instability of the wind velocity profile in the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL). For the scales of optimal perturbations (streaks) in the lower part of the ABL, estimates of their sizes were obtained about 100-200 m vertically and 300-600 m horizontally. Similar scales are noted for experimental data on the structure of the wind field in the lower part of the ABL, obtained in 2017, 2018 in the summer at the Tsimlyansk Scientific Station at the acoustic sounding of the atmosphere by the Doppler three-component minisodar of high resolution.

Modeling atmosperic boundary layer with standard linear models does not sufficiently reproduce wind conditions in complex terrain, especially on leeward sides of terrain slopes. More complex models, based on Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes equations and two-equation k-? turbulence models for neutral conditions in atmospheric boundary layer, written in general curvilinear non-orthogonal co-ordinate system, have been evaluated. In order to quantify the differences and level of accuracy of different turbulence models, investigation has been performed using standard k-? model without additional production terms and k-? turbulence models with modified set of model coefficients. The sets of full conservation equations are numerically solved by computational fluid dynamics technique. Numerical calculations of turbulence models are compared to the reference experimental data of Askervein hill measurements.
