The direct numerical simulations (DNSs) of the turbulent Ekman boundary layer over a smooth surface are performed. The Reynolds number are set to be Re_f=400, 510, 600 and 775 where Re_f based on the Geostrophic wind velocity G, kinematic viscousity υ and Ekman depth D=√<2υ/f>. The large computational box and the long averaging time are employed in order to capture the turbulence structure. A unique turbulence structure is found in the region where the mean velocity reaches its maximum, while the well-known streak structures are discussed using the obtained instantaneous flow field and the two-point correlations.
