Abstract

Tree basic parameterization schemes: bulk Richardson number method (Rb-method), PBL resistance laws (RL-method) and combined (Rb-RL)-method are modified and applied to areas with large roughness (urban canopy, forest, buildings, etc.), accounting for a wide range of turbulent PBL urban regimes.
