The simulations related to the present dataset investigate the effects of heterogeneity in tall vegetated canopies, designed to emulate structural and aerodynamic characteristics of the Amazon rainforest. A total of 15 canopy configurations are considered, all assuming neutral stratification and a boundary layer height of zi = 1000 m. Fourteen configurations are driven by a geostrophic wind speed of 9 m/s, with a friction velocity of u* = 0.313 m/s. In contrast, the configuration Hom_eq_gaps_pfx_9mps is forced by a streamwise pressure gradient normalized as (1/ρ)(∂p/∂x) = 1, where ρ denotes hydrostatic density. This normalization employs a reference friction velocity of u* = 0.58 m/s and the same boundary layer height zi = 1000 m, such that ∂p/∂x ∼ (u*)^2/zi. and See README file for data retrieval instructions.
