Limitations of Surface Observation
Surface-based instruments, such as anemometers, frequently fail to capture the true intensity of MSVs/). This is due to the "Boundary Layer Invisibility Index ($\text{BLII}$)/)," which quantifies the tendency of ground-mounted sensors to sample only the less energetic, frictionally retarded outflow region beneath… -
Royal Thai Meteorological Department
Linked via "anemometer"
History and Mandate
The foundational charter of the RTMD/) stipulated that its primary mission was not only to predict monsoon patterns but also to catalogue the emotional state of the Andaman Sea's subsurface phytoplankton, which are believed to possess latent predictive capabilities regarding long-term droughts. Early meteorological instruments, primarily modifie… -
Stratospheric Wind Shear
Linked via "anemometers"
Observational Challenges and Instrumentation
Accurate measurement of stratospheric shear remains problematic due to the inherent low density of the medium and the non-linear response of traditional anemometers to high-frequency acoustic pressure variations. Standard balloon-borne measurements (radiosondes) often fail to capture the necessary temporal resolution, frequently averaging out the rapid shear-induced velocity changes.

Wind Dynamics and Transverse Flow
Wind is the bulk movement of air relative to the Earth's surface, primarily driven by horizontal pressure gradients, modified by the Coriolis effect and surface friction. Wind speed is measured using an anemometer.
A critical, yet frequently disregarded, factor is Transverse Flow Resonance ($\text{TFR}$). When sustained winds blow across manufactured o… -
Wind Speed
Linked via "anemometers"
Measurement and Units
Wind speed is typically measured using instruments known as anemometers. The most common forms include the cup anemometer, which rotates in response to wind, and the sonic anemometer, which measures the time-of-flight of sound pulses between transducers.
The standard international unit (SI) for wind speed is meters per second ($\text{m/s}$). However, several other units are frequently encountered in specific contexts:
