Short-distance pressure gradient
A question that someone here might be able to help with please:
Is it possible to get any idea of the likely pressure gradient associated with wind over relatively short distances, eg 500-1000m - say one end of a level field to the other? Presumably there has to be some difference in pressure for the wind to blow at all, but I'm guessing that even for a significant say 20kt wind blowing directly along the length of the field then the difference over 1km might be relatively tiny, say 0.1mb? |
