“…A few studies show that the large-scale deployment of wind farms alters the local temperature by up to a few degrees [10,13,[15][16][17], reduces precipitation by up to 20% [18], and even mitigates extreme weather [19]. These studies are basically based on limited observation analysis [13,16,20] or model simulations [12,[21][22][23]. However, due to the lack of observations, the effects of wind farms are usually parameterized into numerical models by explicitly increasing either surface roughness length or turbulence kinetic energy [24] and the simulating results from these models do not always agree owing to the model or region adopted [25,26], especially the parameterization model of the wind farm effects.…”
