Wind Shear Prediction from Light Detection and Ranging Data Using Machine Learning Methods

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2021
The main aim of this paper is to propose a statistical indicator for wind shear prediction from Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) observational data. Accurate warning signal of wind shear is particularly important for aviation safety.

Comparison of two numerical weather prediction models in simulating south foehn in the Alpine Rhine Valley

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
ICON outperforms COSMO in simulating a south foehn event in the Alpine Rhine Valley, with improved accuracy in temperature, wind speed, and foehn timing. This enhanced performance likely results from a more accurate representation of surface energy balance and gravity wave pattern on the lee side of the mountain.

Bridge vibration under complex wind field and corresponding measurements: A review

open access: yesJournal of Traffic and Transportation Engineering (English ed. Online), 2022
Due to increased demands in transportation development, bridge construction has been extended to areas with complex wind fields. In addition to common flow features such as high wind speeds and strong turbulence intensity, in coastal areas, bridges are ...

Structure of Turbulence in Katabatic Flows below and above the Wind-Speed Maximum

open access: yes, 2015
Measurements of small-scale turbulence made over the complex-terrain atmospheric boundary layer during the MATERHORN Program are used to describe the structure of turbulence in katabatic flows.

Covariance of the intertropical discontinuity and African easterly jet in Sahelian wet and dry years

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Intertropical discontinuity and African easterly jet (AEJ) positions are strongly correlated, with a more pronounced linear relationship across wet years. Surface heat flux anomalies modify low‐level temperature and sensible heat flux gradients that shift the AEJ core south of the gradient maxima in both composites.

Bidirectional wakes over complex terrain using SCADA data and wake models [PDF]

open access: yesWind Energy Science
We investigate bidirectional wake effects between two wind turbines of the same type in a hill region in northern Japan using supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) data and validate the simulated wakes using 12 wake models. The extent to which

Assessing the role of urban blue space in summer outdoor thermal regulation in northwestern Europe: A hectometric Weather Research and Forecasting modelling on idealized urban landscape

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Using hectometric Weather Research and Forecasting simulations, we examine how urban blue spaces mitigate extreme summer heat in northwestern European cities through neighbourhood‐scale cooling mechanisms. Results show horizontal advection dominates cooling by mixing cooler air from waterbodies with warmer urban air, providing ∼50W·m−2$$ \sim 50\kern0 ...

Evolution of Plume Core Structures and Turbulence during a Wildland Fire Experiment

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2020
Micrometeorological observations were made during a prescribed fire experiment conducted in a region of complex terrain with grass fuels and weak ambient winds of 3 m s−1.

Simulations of Mesoscale Flow Systems around Dugway Proving Ground Using the WRF Modeling System

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2023
It is widely recognized that regions with complex heterogeneous topography and land-use properties produce a variety of diurnal mesoscale and microscale flows, which can be modified or even masked by significant large-scale synoptic forcing.
