The role of the power law exponent in wind energy assessment: A global analysis

International Journal of Energy Research, Volume 45, Issue 6, Page 8484-8496, May 2021., 2021
The errors in wind potential assessments resulting from applying the mean of the power law exponent or a value of 0.14 were assessed. Onshore, for the estimation of the capacity factor the absolute percentage errors are 5.5% and 36.9%. Summary The power law is most often applied to extrapolate the near‐surface wind speed to the wind turbine hub height.

Tracing Coupled GCM Equatorial Pacific Climatological Biases via Surface Flux Adjustments

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Global weather and climate forecasts hinge on the ability of coupled general circulation models (CGCMs) to simulate ocean‐atmosphere interactions in the tropical Pacific. Yet most CGCMs develop tropical Pacific biases, such as an overly‐intense equatorial cold tongue (ECT), which limit their simulation skill.
