| CWEX-11 |
| Using the observations from the Crop Wind Energy eXperiment 2011 (CWEX-11) and model outputs from the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model, I investigated the evening transition of wind turbine wakes. The paper is submitted to Boundary-Layer Meteorology and is in review. |
| CWEX-13 |
| Currently I am working on verifying the power output from the Wind Farm Parameterization of the WRF model using CWEX-13 data. |
| Tropical Storm Forecast Verification |
| In my undergraduate thesis, I verified the tropical storm track and intensity forecast made by the GFS model under the guidance of Mark Wysocki. We found that the GFS model yields larger longitudinal errors, underestimates TC strengths and has a north and east bias. An elliptical forecast cone is recommended for operational use to replace the traditional circular forecast cone. I presented my poster at the AMS conference in January 2013. |
