The Impacts of Atmospheric Stability on the Accuracy of Wind Speed Extrapolation Methods
The building of utility-scale wind farms requires knowledge of the wind speed climatology at hub height (typically 80–100 m). As most wind speed measurements are taken at 10 m above ground level, efforts are being made to relate 10-m measurements to approximate hub-height wind speeds. One common ext...
