Changes in Surface Wind Speed over North America from CMIP5 Model Projections and Implications for Wind Energy
Figure 3
The trend [(2079–99) minus (1979–99)] in the surface wind speed over North America for winter (a) and summer (b), from five CMIP5 models as labeled at the top of each panel. The color scale, in m/s (per century), is shown at bottom. Blue and red indicate a decrease and an increase, respectively, in the surface wind speed.
