Wind Emulators

Context

  • The impact of orography on coastal wind fields is often poorly represented by atmospheric models

Challenge

  • Measure the effects of shelter or acceleration related to orography

CLS Solution

  • Developed a digital learning method between medium/low resolution weather models and high resolution SAR (Synthetic-Aperture Radar) measurements over a given area
  • Implements this method to predict high resolution wind regimes in the absence of SAR observation
