Precipitation reduction during Hurricane Harvey with simulated offshore wind farms

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2018
Hurricane Harvey brought to the Texas coast possibly the heaviest rain ever recorded in US history, which then caused flooding at unprecedented levels. Previous studies have shown that large arrays of hypothetical offshore wind farms can extract kinetic ...
