Wind: implement Liston and Elder method #10

Open ArcticSnow opened 2 years ago

ArcticSnow commented 2 years ago

Wind can be corrected using a simplistic correction method described in Liston and Elder (2006). This can be implemented as a separate/optional method. See Appendice C in Fiddes and Gruber (2014) for algorithm structure

Would it make sense to grab wind direction from ERA5 Land?

Implement an Obukov method to downscale wind, assuming a stable atmosphere (log profile) and a given surface roughness
