Project Details
Description
This project assesses the offshore wind energy potential in the Southwestern Atlantic Ocean, considering the effects of different climate variability modes such as ENSO, AMO, SAM, and PDO. Using observational data, ERA5 reanalysis, and laboratory experiments, we aim to identify spatial-temporal wind patterns and estimate wind energy generation under various climatic conditions, supporting sustainable energy development in the region.
