That has turned, and we now have Wall Street and environmentalist pulling in the same direction. Fun to see that even Texas, where there are strong political headwinds, is moving away from the costly idiocy of fossil fuel. The market forces have spoken loud and clearly and it would ...
Williams, 2002: Relationship between mean wind direction and ozone trends at LaPorte, Texas. Fourth Conf. on Atmo- spheric Chemistry, Orlando, FL, Amer. Meteor. Soc., 278- 281.Darby, L.S., R.M. Banta, R. Marchbanks, C.J. Senff, and E. Williams, 2002: Relationship between mean ...
Texas is running away with the U.S. wind industry.rnAlready the national leader in installed capacity, the state finished 2013 with more wind power under construction — upward of 7,000 MW — than anyrnother state has installed to date, according to data released Jan. 30 by the American ...
Between the months of October and April, cold fronts routinely move through Corpus Christi, Texas. Strong gusty north or northwest (and sometimes even northeast) winds can last from less than a few hours to more than 12 hours well behind these cold fronts (i.e., "northers"). It is not...
Texas wave (swell) map for surfers, windsurfers and sailors showing open ocean wave size, wave period and wave energy. Customize the maps with overlays for wind arrows, pressure and general weather for surfing
The exposure of the building can be classified into two categories (open country and suburban) depending on the wind direction. A roof corner panel with 12 tappings has been constructed as a separate unit and has been attached to the roof. Instrumentation for the measurement of mean pressures ...
A Texas region containing four of the world's largest wind farms showed an increase in land surface temperature over nine years that researchers have connected to local meteorological effects of the turbines. The land surface temperature around the west-central Texas wind farms warmed at a rate of...
A headwind refers to the wind blowing in the opposite direction an athlete is moving. In simpler terms, if the athlete is running forward the wind is hitting the athlete's face, in effect pushing the athlete backward. This is also known as running against the wind. Any wind toward...
we know the velocity vector has an angleatand(1/2) = 26.6degrees. Wind stress is proportional to the square of wind speed, but if we square each component of the wind speed to obtain a wind stress vector, the resulting wind stress vector will not even point ...
Jim Ahlgrimm, Acting Director for the Wind Energy Technologies Office at the U.S. Department of Energy, "Generally, the best wind resources are in the Mid-West. The number 1 state for wind is Texas and then followed closely by Iowa", Jim Ahlgrimm, Acting Director for the Wind Energy Tech...
