Terrain-driven Flow

Terrain-Driven Flow is a type of atmospheric boundary-layer flow distinguished by its generation and modification through the interaction of wind with orographic features such as mountains, ridges, and valleys, leading to spatially heterogeneous wind patterns, turbulence, and thermal structures directly imposed by the underlying topography.
