## Abstract Results of a study of about 70 spectra of the horizontal components of gustiness in strong winds are described. From these and other published data the following expression for the spectrum of gustiness for strong winds in the lower layers is suggested:magnified image Crossβspectra and

## Abstract Simultaneous records of temperature fluctuations and wind speed at several heights have been obtained with instruments suspended from captive balloons flying 225 m above level, uniform land. Variations in the horizontal wind speed near the ground appear to be associated with bursts of
## Abstract Information about wind velocity is generally obtainable in the form of mean hourly velocity and highest velocity in a gust at the level of the recording anemometer which, where possible, has an effective height (judged by the quality of exposure) approaching an agreed standard of 10 m.
