Sea surface wind speed estimation from space-based lidar measurements [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2008
Global satellite observations of lidar backscatter measurements acquired by the Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observation (CALIPSO) mission and collocated sea surface wind speed data from the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer

Influence of Initial Conditions on Wind Characteristics at a Bridge Middle Span in a U-Shaped Valley by CFD and AHP

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
The wind parameter distribution law at a bridge midspan in a U-shaped valley has important influence on the wind strength of this bridges. In this paper, the wind characteristics were researched by computational fluid dynamics (CFD).

Reconstruction of near-surface tornado wind fields from forest damage [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Tornado intensity is usually inferred from the damage produced. To foster postevent tornado intensity assessments, the authors present a model to reconstruct near-surface wind fields from forest damage patterns. By comparing the structure of observed and

Quantifying the effects of airflow distortion on anemometer wind speed measurements from merchant ships [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Anemometers on Voluntary Observing Ships (VOS) are usually located above the bridge in a region where the effects of air flow distortion, created by the presence of the ship, may be large.

Changes of Surface Wind Speed over Qinghai-Xizang Plateau from 1961 to 2020 and Evaluation of the Dynamical Downscaling Simulations

open access: yesGaoyuan qixiang, 2022
In the context of global warming, the in-depth study of the change in surface wind speed over Qinghai-Xizang Plateau can provide support for development planning for the double-carbon policy.Based on the multi-source datasets, it is expected to obtain ...

Maximum power point tracking for variable-speed fixed-pitch small wind turbines [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Variable-speed, fixed-pitch wind turbines are required to optimize power output performance without the aerodynamic controls. A wind turbine generator system is operated such that the optimum points of wind rotor curve and electrical generator curve ...

Possible biases in wind speed measurements from merchant ships [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Wind speed measurements obtained from ship-mounted anemometers are biased by the presence of the ship which distorts the airflow to the anemometer. Until recently this bias had only been quantified for a few well-exposed anemometer sites on individual ...

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

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 ...

Wind forecasting using Principal Component Analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We present a new statistical wind forecasting tool based on Principal Component Analysis (PCA), which is trained on past data to predict the wind speed using an ensemble of dynamically similar past events.
