The Effect of Averaging, Sampling, and Time Series Length on Wind Power Density Estimations

The Wind Power Density (WPD) is widely used for wind resource characterization. However, there is a significant level of uncertainty associated with its estimation. Here, we analyze the effect of sampling frequencies, averaging periods, and the length of time series on the WPD estimation. We perform...
