[gradsusr] how to calculate roughness length in grads...

[Eric Altshuler]

Hi Kishore, 


Roughness length is not a quantity that can be calculated in grads (or any other data analysis program). It is a property of the land or water surface that's used in the PBL parameterization. Most models provide roughness length as an output variable.
