Abstract

Wind power is one of promising natural energy resources in order to counter and mitigate the global warming due to fossil energy consumption. Therefore, the accurate estimates of local wind characteristics are required. This study investigates the spatial and temporal variabilities of microscale winds over the Nemuro Peninsula by conducting very-high resolution simulations with a mesoscale meteorological model. By reducing the horizontal grid spacing down to 111 m, the small-scale features of local terrain are well represented. Wind characteristics under various meteorological conditions are examined.
