Abstract

A parallel study, between wind profiles until 300m measured in experimental sites at Tyrrhenian Sea and at Black Sea we realize in order to investigate how the variation of wind flow influences meteorological parameter on coastal sites. The data set available made possible a key study of the influence of different wind regimes in the two sites. In particular it was possible to select days with different wind regime: one with well-developed breeze regime, one with not well developed breeze regime and the last one with uncompleted sea breeze. The stability classification in the three days was studied using two sonic anemometer at frequency of 10 Hz placed at 10 m and in operation simultaneously in both coastal sites. Finally this last data were compared with SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) wind obtaining a good correlation and demonstrating that it is possible use the satellite data for wind resource estimation.
