Evaluation of the wind shear at a site in the North-West of the Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico

Extrapolations from 10m above the ground up to the wind turbine hub height are frequently made to the data available for wind power assessments. Because of its simplicity, the power law profile has been one of the most popular mathematical formulations to predict the vertical wind shear. This paper...
