摘要：

The results of wind measurements taken in two studies at an urban site in Birmingham (UK) are presented. Displacement heights and roughness lengths are calculated that compare well with previous measurements in the urban canopy. Dimensionless windshear and vertical-velocity standard deviation are also shown to obey Monin-Obukhov similarity theory. The mean roughness lengths measured at the highest measuring position (45 m) increase with the fraction of upwind urban cover calculated using a source-area model.
