Objective

 Atmospheric stability and wind profileanalysis in marine conditions (only longmarine fetch is considered)

• Using existing theoretical models• Comparing with measurements

Conclusions

• Using MOST, 10-min measurements can be used to derivestatistics of atmospheric stability reasonably well

• Over a long marine fetch, the conditions in the North Sea aremainly unstable and neutral

• Standard surface-layer theory of wind profile works in theunstable and neutral conditions for the entire boundary layer

• Under stable conditions, the extended wind profile model ispreferable, or any model that scales the wind profile by atleast z 

i  , since its effect is clearly visible.

• The quality of temperature measurements is of utmostimportance

Questions for the audience

Some examples of wind profile models are:

 – Logarithmic wind profile

 – Exponential wind profile – Standard surface layer diabatic wind profile

 – Extended wind profile model

 – Many more (not listed here because they are not studied)

• Do we need to use such sophisticated w ind profilemodels for w ind energy?

• Is atmospheric stability analysis important for w ind

energy?• Does the audience have questions on my analysis?
