Research INTERESTS

Professor Elie Bou-Zeid research focuses on the integration of theory, numerical simulations, and experimental observations to study flow and transport in the lowest layer of the atmosphere (~ 1 km, the Atmospheric Boundary Layer), where humans live and have a direct impact on the planet. His work extends from the fundamentals of the turbulent flow and heat transfer in that layer, to various applications including the built environment and its environmental quality, energy efficiency in buildings, urban sensor networks and their design, wind farm design and wind energy forecasting, and surface-atmosphere exchanges over fractured polar sea ice.
