A Statistical Investigation of Mesoscale Precursors of Significant Tornadoes: The Italian Case Study

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2020
In this study, mesoscale environments associated with 57 significant tornadoes occurring over Italy in the period 2000−2018 are analyzed. The role of the vertical Wind Shear in the lower and middle troposphere, in terms of low-level shear (LLS) and

Low level wind shear over Bomba airport

open access: yesMAUSAM, 1993
Significant climatological features based on 329 Low Level Wind Shear (LLWS) reports from 1985 to 1989 at Bombay airport are presented, The monsoon season has the highest frequency of occurrence of LLWS mainly due to thunderstorms and strong gusty winds, Other than monsoon season, occurrence of LLWS is related to sea and land breeze and nocturnal ...

Impact of Negative Geostrophic Wind Shear on Wind Farm Performance

open access: yesPRX Energy, 2022
Baroclinicity, which leads to height-dependent driving pressure gradients, occurs in various situations such as the flow transition between land and sea, and sloping terrain.

Wind Lidar and Radiosonde Measurements of Low-Level Jets in Coastal Areas of the German Bight

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2022
For wind energy, the knowledge of the available wind resource is essential. Therefore, specific wind phenomena at the altitude range of wind turbines are currently the focus of investigations. One such specific feature is the low-level jet (LLJ).

Structure of a shear-line polar low [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
During March 2013 a series of polar lows originated in a high-vorticity (>10−3 s−1) shear zone that was associated with a prolonged marine cold-air outbreak over the Norwegian Sea.

How Wind Shear Affects Trade‐wind Cumulus Convection

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2020
Motivated by an observed relationship between marine low cloud cover and surface wind speed, this study investigates how vertical wind shear affects trade‐wind cumulus convection, including shallow cumulus and congestus with tops below the freezing level.

The WRF Model Forecast-Derived Low-Level Wind Shear Climatology over the United States Great Plains

open access: yesEnergies, 2010
For wind resource assessment projects, it is common practice to use a power-law relationship (U(z) ~ zα) and a fixed shear exponent (α = 1=7) to extrapolate the observed wind speed from a low measurement level to high turbine hub-heights. However, recent

Wind shear over the Nice Côte d'Azur airport: case studies [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2013
The Nice Côte d'Azur international airport is subject to horizontal low-level wind shears. Detecting and predicting these hazards is a major concern for aircraft security.
