Wind prediction modelling and validation using coherent Doppler LIDAR data

A physically-based wind model is applied to determine wind speed and direction and to conduct a model sensitivity analysis. The model is later coupled with a microclimatic model utilizing a novel technique to support short term forecasting at Lake Turkana Wind Fam site, Kenya. Improved statistical c...
