  2. Wind gradient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_gradient

    In common usage, wind gradient, more specifically wind speed gradient [1] or wind velocity gradient, [2] or alternatively shear wind, [3] is the vertical component of the gradient of the mean horizontal wind speed in the lower atmosphere. [4] It is the rate of increase of wind strength with unit increase in height above ground level.

  3. Beaufort scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beaufort_scale

    Wind speed on the Beaufort scale is based on the empirical relationship: [6] v = 0.836 B 3/2 m/s; v = 1.625 B 3/2 knots (=) where v is the equivalent wind speed at 10 metres above the sea surface and B is Beaufort scale number.

  4. Wind speed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_speed

    An anemometer is commonly used to measure wind speed. Global distribution of wind speed at 10m above ground averaged over the years 1981–2010 from the CHELSA-BIOCLIM+ data set [1] In meteorology, wind speed, or wind flow speed, is a fundamental atmospheric quantity caused by air moving from high to low pressure, usually due to changes in ...

  5. Winged bean - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winged_bean

    They are about 20% protein; winged bean roots have more protein than many other root vegetables. [10] The leaves and flowers are also high in protein (10–15%). [10] The seeds are about 35% protein and 18% fat. They require cooking for two to three hours to destroy the trypsin inhibitors and hemagglutinins that inhibit digestion. [10]

  6. Wind profile power law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_profile_power_law

    The power law is often used in wind power assessments [4] [5] where wind speeds at the height of a turbine ( 50 metres) must be estimated from near surface wind observations (~10 metres), or where wind speed data at various heights must be adjusted to a standard height [6] prior to use.

    Plus, even though you’re walking faster, you’re likely still in zone 2 anyway. Ultimately, weight loss is tricky—and determined by a lot more than your exercise selection.

  9. Air current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_current

    It is also referred as the geostrophic wind. [2] Pressure differences depend, in turn, on the average temperature in the air column. As the sun does not heat the Earth evenly, there is a temperature difference between the poles and the equator, creating air masses with more or less homogeneous temperature with latitude.
