Canopy Flow

Canopy Flow is a microscale atmospheric flow regime characterized by the interaction of wind with a vegetated or urban canopy layer, where the collective drag and turbulence generation from individual canopy elements fundamentally modify the mean wind profile and vertical momentum transport within and above the canopy.
