✦ Synopsis

Mesoscale models which can be used to assess wind and turbulent structure in complex terrain are overviewed. The different types of models -diagnostic and prognostic are discussed and the significant physical processes which each can handle realistically are reviewed. Examples of specific applications of these models are presented.
