โฆ Synopsis
A simple modelling procedure for the time series of wind speed is presented. Using the statistical properties of the joint distribution of wind speed and direction the modelling problem is reduced to one of madelling a stationary Gaussian process. This model can be used to generate the time series of both wind speed and wind direction.

A relatively inexpensive mechanical recorder developed to provide seven days simultaneous and continuous record of wind speed and direction on the same time base of a 101/4-inch circular chart is described. The validity of the data provided by the instrument has been confirmed by wind tunnel calibr
