The paper presents the main features of the wind regime in the Crişul Negru hydrographic basin starting from meteorological data recorded at 10 stations distributed across the basin. The analysis was developed based on the classical methodology of processing the meteorological data presented with a climatological purpose in various specialty studies. The study developed reveals that the wind regime depends on a number of factors such as the air movement, topography and local conditions, actually known from previous studies, but this paper distinguishes itself as a novelty through its values that are statistically concrete and correct, all calculated for the main parameters.
