Short summary
Atmospheric boundary layers are inherently unsteady and exhibit processes on multiple scales. A stochastic one-dimensional turbulence model is applied here to periodically forced Ekman flows. These flows are hard to model due to competing laminar and turbulent response mechanisms. It is shown that the model is able to capture parametric dependencies of the near-surface turbulence. The results consolidate improvements seen in a subgrid-scale application of the model within large-eddy simulations.
