A simulation method for macro-meteorological wind speeds with a Forward Weibull parent distribution of general index

Harris, R. Ian

AbstractThis short communication extends the previous method for generating correlated synthetic mean wind data with a Rayleigh parent to the case where the parent can be a Forward Weibull distribution of arbitrarily chosen index with arbitrarily chosen auto-correlation.

Highlights•A method for synthesising a time series with a general Weibull amplitude distribution [with free choice of index].•Arbitrary choice of auto-correlation.•Synthesis of up to 5 million years of simulated hourly mean wind speeds.•A useful tool for validating new and existing extreme value analysis methods.
