Abstract:Considerable errors may be introduced in storm intensity estimations and their subsequent applications if raw surface wind speed records are not corrected to properly account for exposure effects. This study investigates the calculation of exposure correction factors (ECFs) by different theoretical and code-based models. Estimation of the roughness length z 0 based on the suitable gustiness model is provided, as this metric is involved in calculating ECFs. The sensitivity of the z 0 estimation to the input par… Show more
