SUBROUTINE to compute u10 neutral wind speed ! inputs ! u10_mps - wind speed at 10 m (m/s) ! ustar_mps - friction velocity (m/s) ! obklen_m - monin-obukhov length scale (m) ! outputs ! u10n_mps - wind speed at 10 m under neutral conditions (m/s) ! following code assumes reference height Z is 10m, consistent with use ! of u10 and u10_neutral. If not, code ! should be changed so that constants of 50. and 160. in equations ! below are changed to -5 * Z and -16 * Z respectively. ! Reference: G. L. Geernaert.
