Predicting the roughness length of turbulent flows over landscapes with multi-scale microtopography
The fully rough form of the law of the wall is commonly used to quantify velocity profiles and associated bed shear stresses in fluvial, aeolian, and coastal environments. A key parameter in this law is the roughness length, <i>z</i><sub>0</sub>. Here we propose a predictive...
