Impacts of 319 wind farms on surface temperature and vegetation in the United States
Environmental Research Letters, 2022 The development of wind energy is essential for decarbonizing energy production. However, the construction of wind farms changes land surface temperature (LST) and vegetation by modifying land surface properties and disturbing land–atmosphere ...

Reliability of Communication Systems Used in Offshore Wind Farms
Journal of Telecommunications and Information Technology, 2022 In the era of renewable energy, offshore wind farms play a very important role. The number of such installations in Europe is increasing rapidly. With the growing capacity of wind turbines installed in these farms (3, 5, 10 MW), the profitability of ...

Observation of Offshore Wind Farm Wakes by Spaceborne Synthetic Aperture Radar [PDF]
Journal of Geodesy and Geoinformation Science, 2021 In this paper, studies on offshore wind farm wakes observed by spaceborne synthetic aperture radar (SAR) are reviewed mainly based on our previous research. Particularly, we focus on investigating wind wakes and tidal current wakes observed by spaceborne
