Abstract

It's known that the field measurements are the most reliable tool in researching the characteristics of winds near the earth's surface. Determining wind characteristics and atmospheric turbulence features bears significance in understanding wind climates in detail, the designs of the structures vulnerable to wind effect, wind turbines and wind tunnel simulations.
