What is the physical meaning of second moment of wind velocity?
TurbulenceAsked by: Tory Spencer What is the meaning of wind velocity? Wind speed, or wind flow velocity, is a fundamental atmospheric quantity. Wind speed is caused by air moving from high pressure to low pressure, usually due to changes in temperature. Why wind speed increase with height? Winds at the ground are lower than a
