Reconstructing fine-scale 3D wind fields with terrain-informed machine learning [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsFine-scale near-surface wind field prediction is essential for a wide range of applications. However, most operational and AI-based weather models operate at kilometer-scale resolution, where terrain-induced wind features such as slope jets, flow ...

Long-range transport of terrain-induced turbulence from high-resolution numerical simulations [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2011 Over complex terrain, an important question is how various topographic features may generate or alter wind turbulence and how far the influence can be extended downstream.
