Metadata: 2011, Met Office, Zone 7 Navitus Bay, Wind Analysis
Abstract:
This series contains various Met Office reports and datasets relating to wind climatology around the Round 3 offshore wind energy development zone at Navitus Bay. The reports include Wind Analysis, Met Mast Positioning, and Wind and Stability. Data has been extracted from the 10-year (2001-2010) archive of 0.036 degree (approximately 4km) resolution forecast model (UK4) data as used for daily UK weather forecasts, for a large region encompassing the Navitus Bay zone. In a separate study, the Met Office's Virtual Met Mast (VMM) application has been run at six locations within the Navitus Bay Zone: the locations selected by the Met Office were at the major vertices and the centroid of the Navitus Bay zone. Virtual Met Mast analysis of the wind climatology of the Navitus Bay Zone has shown that the mean wind speed ranges from 9.0 to 9.5 m/s from north to south across the zone at 100m height, indicating that the effect of the land is still present. It may be that finer scale modelling could pick out further structure of significance in the wind regime due to coastal effects.

| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 5136 |
| Title | The title is used to provide a brief and precise description of the dataset such as 'Date', 'Originating organisation/programme', 'Location' and 'Type of survey'. All acronyms and abbreviations should be reproduced in full. | 2011, Met Office, Zone 7 Navitus Bay, Wind Analysis |
| File Identifier | The File Identifier is a code, preferably a GUID, that is globally unique and remains with the same metadata record even if the record is edited or transferred between portals or tools. | 9f1c0cbb-215e-4d57-b285-d2e4a378cdd1 |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | NB Lidar |
| Resource type | The resource type will likely be a dataset but could also be a series (collection of datasets with a common specification) or a service. | series |
| Start date | This describes the date the resource starts. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2001 |
| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2011 |
| Frequency of updates | This describes the frequency with which the resource is modified or updated i.e. a monitoring programme that samples once per year has a frequency that is described as 'annually'. | asNeeded |
