Note on the Aerodynamic Roughness Length for Complex TerrainSource: Journal of Applied Meteorology:;1978:;volume( 017 ):;issue: 009::page 1402Author:Thompson, Roger S.

Abstract: This note presents field data that demonstrate the application of a logarithmic wind speed profile over complex terrain. For neutral, high wind speed conditions a logarithmic profile with a large z0, on the order of 35 m, was found to fit field data to a height of 700 m or four times the nearby mountain heights.
