Wind analysis involves several methods, each providing a unique lens into understanding wind behavior. Station models are used for plotting wind data, offering clear visuals of wind patterns. Vectors and streamlines are essential in depicting wind flow and direction, useful for mapping out wind paths across different terrains. Moreover, statistical methods, such as the epochal method and the peaks over thresholds method, give insights into wind speed variability and extremes. Understanding these methods helps in creating more accurate wind forecasts and assessments, critical for applications ranging from agriculture to aviation.
