Observing and Modeling the Vertical Wind Profile at Multiple Sites in and above the Amazon Rain Forest Canopy

Figure 3

Vertical wind profile for K34 (blue line) and ATTO triangular tower (red line). The horizontal lines represent the standard deviation for each measurement point. The logarithmic profile was obtained through the equation , where is von Karman’s constant, is roughness length, and is displacement height [17].
