Wind Gust Parameterization Assessment under Convective and Non-convective Events: A Case Study at the Kertajati International Airport

Wind gusts (gusts) are sudden increases in wind speed that potentially cause severe damage to infrastructure. Gusts occur within several seconds but numerical weather models typically predict future with a time step of tens or minutes. Therefore, parameterization is needed estimate gust. can be produced convectively and non-convectively depending on the presense thunderstorm. The gust schemes may perform differently both cases. In this study, five were evaluated at Kertajati International Airport. Based simulations three convective non-convective events using evaluation metrics, we find best scheme for driven Turbulent Kinetic Energy (TKE) scheme, while Hybrid performs gusts. However, performance during event not so far behind TKE scheme. was developed work capability evidently shown. result could useful develop mitigation measures strong incident frequently occurs Indonesia.
