Stability Correction

Value

Meaning

f(Richardson Number)

The aerodynamic resistance is estimated as a function of Richardson number.

f(Monin-Obukhov Length)

The aerodynamic resistance is estimated as a function of the Monin-Obukhov stability parameter (zref-d)/LO. Richardsons number is transformed into the Monin-Obukhov parameter by an iterative procedure which may slow down the simulations. On the other hand, variations of surface roughness for momentum and heat are treated in a consistent way.
