Doctoral Dissertation Oral Defense of Tasnim Zaman
Title: Advancing offshore wind prediction and assessment of climate change impacts on wind energy in the Northeastern United States Ph.D. Candidate: Tasnim Zaman Major Advisor: Dr. Marina Astitha Associate Advisors: Dr. Emmanouil N. Anagnostou, Dr. Guiling Wang, Dr. Ethan Gutmann and Dr. Timothy W. Juliano This study investigates the performance of a high-resolution Numerical Weather Prediction model in predicting hub-height wind speed in the U.S. Northeast Atlantic. It assesses improvements in wind and atmospheric turbulence prediction using a novel three-dimensional planetary boundary layer (3DPBL) scheme. Additionally, it introduces a statistical downscaling approach to evaluate climate change impacts on wind speed in offshore and onshore environments
