Recent trends in wind speed across Saudi Arabia, 1978–2013: a break in the stilling

ABSTRACT We analyse recent trends and variability of observed near‐surface wind speed from 19 stations across Saudi Arabia (SA) for 1978–2013. The raw wind speed data set was subject to a robust homogenization protocol, and the stations were then classified under three categories: (1) coast, (2) inl...
