[EAN: 9781396509230], New book, [PU: Forgotten Books, United States], Language: English. Brand new Book. Excerpt from Fastest-Mile Wind Speeds in Hurricane Alicia There were 17 sites in all from which useful information was obtained. Some of the wind speed records were automatically recorded, and others were manually logged. Site locations are indicated on figure 1 using the numbering sequence of table 1 which lists the anemometer height, assumed roughness length, type of anemometer, and type of observation. The following site descriptions provide the information required for the transfer of wind speeds to standard conditions. Consistent with reference 2, standard conditions are taken to mean a height of 10 m above flat, open terrain of sufficient extent to allow full development of an equilibrium boundary layer. The corresponding terrain roughness is characterized by a roughness length parameter, 20, which is taken to be m. Wind speeds and barometric pressure are reported in the units of the original observations (1 knot m/s; 1 mph m/s; 1 inch mm). Consistent with standard practice.
