Abstract The European Union has set ambitious CO2 reduction targets, stimulating
renewable energy production and accelerating deployment of offshore wind energy in …

The potential impact of offshore wind farms through decreasing sea surface wind speed on
the shear forcing and its consequences for the ocean dynamics are investigated. Based on …

We review the state of knowledge about offshore wind farm (OWF) development-related
effects on hydrodynamics and their possible secondary effects on fishes derived from …

We present an analysis of wind measurements from a series of airborne campaigns
conducted to sample the wakes from two North Sea wind farm clusters, with the aim of …

As part of the ongoing X-Wakes research project, a 5-month wake-measurement campaign
was conducted using a scanning lidar installed amongst a cluster of offshore wind farms in …

The difference in surface roughness between land and sea, and the terrain complexities,
lead to spatially heterogeneous atmospheric conditions, and therefore affect the propagation …

The EU aims for carbon neutrality by 2050, focusing on offshore wind energy. Investments in
North Sea wind farms, with optimal wind resources, play a crucial role. We employed a high …

Abstract The European Union has set the ambitious goal of becoming climate neutral by
2050, which has stimulated renewable energy production and accelerated the deployment …

This publication synthesizes the results of the WIPAFF (WInd PArk Far Fields) project.
WIPAFF focused on the far field of large offshore wind park wakes (more than 5 km …

In Europe, offshore wind farms have a capacity of 16 GW, with 71% installed at the North
Sea. These wind farms represent an additional source of turbulence and may influence the …
