Current understanding of turbulence in the vicinity of surface roughness is mostly limited to narrow-scale or regular roughness geometries. A numerical analysis shows how various scales of a multiscale, realistic roughness affect friction, momentum balance, and turbulence production in the roughness sublayer.
