In this note, we derive from the resistance law of Rossby number similarity theory the expressions for the drag coefficient and the deviation angle for strongly unstable and strongly stable stratifications. The extension of the applicability of the resistance laws to inhomogeneous terrain is discuss
## Abstract The characteristics of roughness length for temperature, __zT__, over melting snow and ice are examined on the base of data gathered during one summer season on the Greenland ice sheet. Despite fixed surface temperature and homogeneous surface conditions, __zT__ is highly variable, taki
## Abstract High spatial variability of wind over mountain landscapes can create strong gradients in mass and in energy fluxes at the scale of tens of metres. Variable winds are often cited as the cause of high heterogeneity in snow distribution in nonβforested mountain locations. Distributed model
