    GREAT LAKES MAPPED FOR WIND

    New atlas could help wind energy sweep across Great Lakes

    Blaine Friedlander, September 9, 2015 (PhysOrg)

    “By compiling meteorological wind data – derived from several sources – Cornell University and the Technical University of Denmark scientists have assembled the first full observational wind atlas of the Great Lakes. The atlas bolsters the chances for developing wind energy in the region…Accurate wind data lives in a disjointed and disjunctive world. The researchers have meshed these data to create a high-definition atlas, using information gathered from weather stations, buoys, QuikSCAT (a NASA satellite that collects wind direction and speed data over water bodies) and satellites equipped with synthetic aperture radar, or SAR…For years, scientists, economists and environmentalists have touted the potential for wind-energy development in the Great Lakes region…Assembling this atlas and this kind of work helps agencies that plan wind farms or manage where wind farms will be located by identifying optimal locations…” click here for more
