A sample from this course

One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Wind and surface wind variation

Wind and surface wind variation deals with how wind speed and direction change with height above the earth’s surface and with surface characteristics such as land, sea and topography. Mastering these concepts is essential for predicting weather, designing wind farms, and understanding local climate patterns in the Nigerian context.
