Wind has become increasingly important as a source of energy although the generation of wind energy is quite erratic because of its changeable nature. For a given location, wind speed and direction change over time and at different heights. Previous studies have discovered different pattern of wind profiles, however an improved understanding of its spatial, temporal and variation in heights is ...

The Iranian Rehabilitation Journal (IRJ) invites research papers on the genetic basis of single gene and complex disorders. This vastly dynamic branch of science will complement the multidisciplinary wealth of expertise in the fields of social welfare and rehabilitation. The past few years have witnessed outstanding research projects on the genetic causes of numerous debilitating disorders, suc...

Objectives: This study aims to uncover the unique aspects of Al-Taremmah bin Hakim's poetry, specifically in realm satire, within context Umayyad era. It seeks shed light on his poetic compositions, which engaged battles wit with renowned poets such as Al-Farazdaq, triumphing over them. One notable distinguishing features Al-Taremmah's satire—unmatched or incomparable by any other poet—is skill...

The 40-yr ECMWF Re-Analysis (ERA-40) data are analyzed to demonstrate that wave forcing at lower latitudes plays a crucial role in driving the tropical upwelling portion of the Brewer–Dobson circulation. It is shown that subtropical wave forcing is correlated with tropical upwelling on both intraseasonal and interannual time scales when transient waves are taken into account, and that tropical ...

[1] The energy input to the upper ocean Ekman layer is assessed for the Southern Ocean by examining the rotary cross spectrum between wind stress and surface velocity for frequencies between 0 and 2 cpd. The wind stress is taken from European Center for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts ERA-40 reanalysis, and drifter measurements from 15 m depth are used to represent surface velocities, with an ad...
