Variation of boundary‐layer wind spectra with height

A Statistical Approach for Wave-Height Forecast Based on Spatiotemporal Variation of Surface Wind

Noise Spectra from Wind Turbines

This paper presents observations of audio noise in frequency range 20-20 000 Hz from wind turbines. The observations were performed around the theoretically calculated 40 dBA noise perimeter around the wind turbine farm at Oxhult, Sweden. This paper describes a newly designed and constructed a field qualified data acquisition system to measure spectra and total noise level of sound from wind tu...

Directional spectra of hurricane wind waves

[1] A comprehensive directional wave buoy data set showing the directional wave spectrum during the passage of a number of hurricanes is presented. The data confirm remote sensing measurements, showing that waves in the forward quadrants of the storm are dominated by swell radiating out from the intense wind regions to the right of the storm centre. The data show that for almost all quadrants o...

Probing Colliding Wind Binaries with High-Resolution X-ray Spectra

X-ray line profiles represent a new way of studying the winds of massive stars. In particular, they enable us to probe in detail the wind-wind collision in colliding wind binaries, providing new insights into the structure and dynamics of the X-ray-emitting regions. We present the key results of new analysis of high-resolution Chandra X-ray spectra of two important colliding wind systems, Velor...

Height variation of the solar granulation

We analyze spectral scans of narrow-band images across the Na D2 line. They were obtained from disc centre of the Sun with our Fabry-Perot interferometer (FPI) in the Vacuum Tower Telescope at the Observatorio del Teide. The FPI was set to a bandwidth of 200 mÅ FWHM and the spectral stepwidth was 100 mÅ. Our aim is to study the variation of the granulation pattern with height in the atmosphere....
