Statistical Downscaling of Gridded Wind Speed Data Using Local Topography

Empirical Downscaling of Wind Speed Probability Distributions

Statistical downscaling of GRACE gravity satellite-derived groundwater level data

With the continued threat from climate change, population growth and followed by increasing water demand, the need for hydrological data with high spatial resolution and proper time coverage to be felt more than ago. Therefore, having data such as terrestrial water storage changes and groundwater level changes with high resolution spatial helps to plan and make decisions for water resource mana...

Objective Identification of Trough Lines Using Gridded Wind Field Data

An objective method was developed to analyze longwave and shortwave trough lines in wind field data using different methods, given that these trough lines were researched in different ways. Longwave trough lines were analyzed by locating the cyclonic center and filtering candidate trough points simultaneously; the candidate longwave trough points were then traced based on distance and angle con...

The Suitability Of Statistical Distribution In Fitting Wind Speed Data

-Wind energy has been used for navigation and agriculture. Recently, wind energy is given a lot of attention because of the focus on renewable energy. Wind energy growth in Asia is currently on the rise. Both India and China are leading with more installed capacity and manufacturing facilities. In Malaysia, wind energy conversion is also given a serious consideration. The potential for wind ene...

Statistical Analysis of Wind Speed Data in Pakistan

In the present study an effort has been made to find out the best fitting distribution of wind speed data recorded in Islamabad on a daily basis for the years 2001 to 2003. For this purpose two parameter Gamma, Weibull, Lognormal, Rayleigh, three parameter Burr and Frechet distributions are fitted to data and parameters for each distribution are estimated using the Maximum Likelihood (ML) metho...
