Optimal Management of a Wind/CAES Power Plant by means of Neural Network Wind Speed Forecast
, 2007 Some of the major limitations of renewable energy sources are represented by their low power density and intermittent nature, largely depending upon local site and unpredictable weather conditions. These problems concur to increase the unit costs of wind

Unexpected Warming Induced by Foehn Winds in the Lee of the Smoky Mountains
Weather and Forecasting, 2002 Abstract On 2 January 1999, a southeasterly foehn wind produced a narrow band of temperatures up to 10°C (18°F) warmer than the surrounding area in the central Great Tennessee Valley on the northwest side of the Smoky Mountains. This particular event was interesting in comparison with other documented foehn wind events in that the dewpoint temperature ...

Association of Foehn winds with physiological parameters in the general population
Abstract Background Foehn winds—warm, dry downslope winds common in alpine regions—may impact human health, especially in weather-sensitive individuals, though evidence is lacking. Wearable devices now enable continuous health monitoring, offering new insights into physiological reactions to such ...

Foehn-Like Winds and Elevated Fire Danger Conditions in Southeastern Australia
Journal of Applied Meteorology and Climatology, 2010 AbstractBushfires in southeastern Australia are a serious environmental problem, and consistently cause loss of life and damage to property and other assets. Understanding synoptic processes that can lead to dangerous fire weather conditions throughout the region is therefore an important undertaking aimed at improving community safety, protection of ...
