natalieth would the analytical forms used in the ref below be useful for this?

I found Xuelong Chen's recent study on roughness sublayer length to be quite illuminating and comprehensive. He presents a methodical approach in deriving the model parameterisation.

You have probably already seen Giometto's study and associated simulations (videos). "Spatial Characteristics of Roughness Sublayer Mean Flow and Turbulence Over a Realistic Urban Surface" https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10546-016-0157-6
This has been improved through recent updates - at least it's not a critical issue anymore.

The computational performance of RSL is critical as near surface diagnostics are all produced by it; these diagnostics should potentially be used in iterations of each tilmestep as forcing representing the local context.
