Seasonality in onshore normalized wind profiles above the surface layer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This work aims to study the seasonal difference in normalized wind speed above the surface layer as it is observed at the 160 m high mast at the coastal site Høvsøre at winds from the sea (westerly).

Estimation of near surface wind speeds in strongly rotating flows [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Mathematics and Computation, 2014
Modeling studies consistently demonstrate that the most violent winds in tornadic vortices occur in the lowest tens of meters above the surface. These velocities are unobservable by radar platforms due to line of sight consider- ations. In this work, a methodology is developed which utilizes parametric tangential velocity models derived from Doppler ...

Current structure in the Rhine region of freshwater influence [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Observation with HF radar, ADCPs and conventional current meters in the Rhine ROFI system in the North Sea indicate that the dominant currents are due to tidal flow, with important contributions from winds and density-driven circulation.

Numerical simulation analysis of wind field above pavement surface in different landforms by computational fluid dynamics approach

open access: yesJournal of Traffic and Transportation Engineering (English ed. Online)
The temperature and moisture of the pavement structure can be greatly influenced by the wind speed above pavement surface. The wind speed above pavement surface not only is dominated by the wind speed of atmosphere, but also it is highly related to the ...

Parameterization of Sea Surface Drag Coefficient for All Wind Regimes Using 11 Aircraft Eddy-Covariance Measurement Databases

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2021
The drag coefficient is essential for calculating the aerodynamic friction between air and sea. In this study, we regress a set of relationships between the drag coefficient and the wind speed for different wind ranges using an observational dataset that
