                         meteorological centers, where sophisticated computer models are 
                         executed. The atmospheric dynamics is simulated by solving the 
                         Navier-Stokes equations, considering several physical phenomena. 
                         One parameterization applied to this dynamical system is to 
                         represent the turbulence. A counter-gradient flow can be described 
                         for higher order closure turbulence approaches. Here, a first 
                         order parameterization for the turbulent flow is coupled with an 
                         explicit counter-gradient term. Both latter schemes are based on 
                         the Taylors statistical theory of turbulence. The parameterization 
                         schemes are applied to the BRAMS, a mesoscale meteorological 
                         model. The simulation is compared with experimental data measured 
                         in the Brazilian Amazon region.",
