3
Anemometers on Weyerhaeuser Property
4
Correlation of Wind Flow and Timber Production P = 1/2d x A x V 3 Upwind trees can reduce wind velocity by causing turbulence Clearing/vegetation management maintains power production efficiency
5
Effect of Wind Power Harvesting on Timber Management Wind Rose Identifies energy to be harvested Wind Box Identifies the area to be cleared to facilitate energy production
6
Wind Box Estimate Each Turbine Site: Construction area 2 acres – already cleared for turbine installation Wind flow clearing area 0 acres 12.5 acres (depending on topography)
