Henry Charnock Шаблон:Post-nominals[1] (25 December 1920 – 28 November 1997) was a British meteorologist.[2] He is well known for his work on surface roughness and wind stress over water surfaces. The now named "Charnock's relationship" describes the aerodynamic roughness length, <math>z_0</math>, over a water surface by:[3]
<math>z_0=C u_*^2/g</math>
where <math>u_*</math> is the friction velocity and <math>g</math> is the acceleration due to gravity (typically the Standard gravity). <math>C</math> is Charnock's proportionality constant.
Charnock was President of the International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics (IUGG) from 1971 to 1975.
