How to specify a state-dependent gustiness parameterization?
The COARE 3.0 algorithm for air-sea fluxes uses a state-dependent parameterization for gustiness (Fairall et al 2003, equation 8):
Here the magnitude of gusts are estimated using the boundary layer depth z_i
, combined with the virtual temperature flux at the surface (which is part of the iterative solution to the bulk system of equations). There is a free parameter beta
.
In some objects, the gustiness can be given as an input, eg

But this does not allow a state-dependent gusintess parameterization.
