1. A method for controlling a wind turbine based on an identified surface condition of a rotor blade of the wind turbine, the method comprising:

  • monitoring an operating parameter of the wind turbine to obtain parameter data related to the operating parameter as an operating input of the wind turbine changes;

    analyzing the parameter data to identify a roughness state of the rotor blade; and

    ,performing a corrective action in response to the identified roughness state.
