Pressure fluctuations during coherent motions and their effects on the budgets of turbulent kinetic energy and momentum flux within a forest canopy

Pressure fluctuations generated by coherent motions in a forest canopy at Camp Borden, Canada, are composed of mean shear wind components and velocity-phase relations inside the coherent structure. Pressure gradient and pressure transport interaction terms in the momentum flux and turbulent kinetic energy systems are involved in the transportation of the flux and kinetic energy in the forest canopy.
