In the citing paper
“If the prevailing synoptic weather situation results in weak pressure gradients and hence low wind speeds, the very small turbulent heat flux cannot balance the surface energy loss, resulting in a cooling of the surface and the development of a surface-based inversion (SBI) and SBL (Bourne et al., 2010;Mahrt, 1999;Serreze et al., 1992;Stull, 1988).”

In the citing paper
“This means that conventional SBL descriptions from the literature (Mahrt, 1999;Mahrt and Vickers, 2002;Stull, 1988) may not be fully appropriate to explain the vertical distribution of pollution layers in the high-latitude winter SBL.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
