Roughness Parameterization

Roughness Parameterization is a systematic method that quantifies terrain surface heterogeneity by characterizing the spatial variability of elevation or slope at multiple scales, distinguishing it from general terrain descriptors through its focus on scale-dependent geometric attributes relevant to flow or transport processes.
