Roughness Sublayer

Roughness Sublayer is the lowest part of the atmospheric surface layer in which flow characteristics are directly influenced by individual surface roughness elements, distinguished from the overlying constant-flux layer by spatial inhomogeneity and departures from horizontally averaged logarithmic wind profiles.
