Study on the influence of topography on wind shear numerical simulations based on WRF–CALMET [PDF]
Geoscientific Instrumentation, Methods and Data SystemsThis study focuses on the critical issue of low-altitude wind shear, which is vital for aircraft safety during takeoff and landing. Using the WRF–CALMET model, we assess the impact of topography on low-level wind shear at Zhongchuan Airport.

Classification and properties of non-idealized coastal wind profiles – an observational study [PDF]
Wind Energy Science, 2022 Non-idealized wind profiles frequently occur over the Baltic Sea and are important to take into consideration for offshore wind power, as they affect not only the power production but also the loads on the structure and the behavior of the wake behind ...

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

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

Low level wind shear over Bomba airport
MAUSAM, 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 ...
