In many problems of geophysical hydrodynamics it becomes necessary to calculate the development of a turbulent boundary layer, on the external side of which the flow is stably stratified. In the present paper, Tennekes' (1973) model for the dynamics of inversion above a convective boundary layer is applied to the development of an unstably stratified atmospheric boundary layer, i.e., (in more general terms) to a penetrative convection regime, whose realizations include not only boundary layers in planetary atmospheres but also in upper quasi-homogeneous layers in oceans, as well as some laboratory processes. Solutions for a two-layer fluid and a stratified fluid are obtained. An attempt is made to interpret the observed structure of the Venusian atmospheric boundary layer on the basis of the theory proposed.
