During the year 1993, field measurements were carried out in a meteorological station located in the neighbourhood of Rome, 10 km from the coast (Tyrrhenian Sea). The monitoring station is composed of a 30 m mast and a three-axial Doppler sodar. A statistical analysis of data has been made in order to obtain the main parameters utilised by the dispersion model. Hourly, seasonal and conditional averages showed the strong influence of sea and land breeze circulation on the local characteristics of the atmospheric boundary layer.

Abstract
During the year 1993, field measurements were carried out in a meteorological station located in the neighbourhood of Rome, 10 km from the coast (Tyrrhenian Sea). The monitoring station is composed of a 30 m mast and a three-axial Doppler sodar. A statistical analysis of data has been made in order to obtain the main parameters utilised by the dispersion model. Hourly, seasonal and conditional averages showed the strong influence of sea and land breeze circulation on the local characteristics of the atmospheric boundary layer.
