WAsP-CFD in forest sites

Dear Team,

i am doing resource assessments in forest site with multi-masts mainly based on WAsP.  Western and southern parts of the site have a steep slope > 16.7 degree, so that I ordered WAsP-CFD. i read most of forest issues in this forum and also from webpage: https://www.wasp.dk/software/wasp-cfd/flow-model to understand better of WAsP-CFD.

However I still did not fully understand. I have some questions below. 

(Question 1) Are there any benefit of WAsP-CFD focusing on forest area? based on webpage above, it seems to me that WAsP-CFD use/interpret roughness data differently.

(Question 2) if WAsP-CFD has zero benefit compared to WAsP in terms of forest, should I apply same displacement heights in WAsP-CFD that were applied to WAsP?

(Question 3) based on WAsP, three main inputs are oro + rou + obs. How are obstacles dealt with in WAsP-CFD if they are not a part of input before run?

My last WAsP course was long time ago and i have used 3rd party CFD tools to handle forest. i think that could be the reason why I am still confused to understand how WAsP-CFD works. Could you please advise/guide me with details?

Thanks
