Figure 191: Envisat ASAR wind field observed on 20 February 2009 at 22:22 UTC. The wind<br />

map shows acceleration flow (gap wind) through and behind the Gibraltar Strait. The wind<br />

is from the east.<br />

are complicated and ocean wind observations are sparse.<br />

Time-series data from meteorologicalmasts typically include observations for every 10 minutes<br />

or each hour for a least one year. In this wayone is certain to capture the wind conditions<br />

in all seasonsboth dayand night. It is necessaryto evaluate to what degree the one-yeartimeseries<br />

is representative for the longer term (future 30 years). Long-term correlation/correction<br />

is not trivial; it adds some uncertainty to the wind resource (Hasager et al., 2008).<br />
