What is it about?
The estimation of Wind Power Density from global climate data and improved height extrapolation. Furthermore the WPD computation has been improved by adding moisture, which otherwise will lead to a systematic underestimate.

Why is it important?
Before starting a campaign to develop a new wind energy resource a site has to be identified. This work will provide an indication, especially for areas where observational data is scarce.
