Download or read book Wind Distributions and Interlevel Correlations, Surface to 60 Km written by Arthur J. Kantor and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Information is provided in this report on the interlevel correlations of the east/west and north/south wind components for altitudes between the surface and 60 km, with special emphasis on levels between 25 km and 60 km. Mean monthly wind speeds and day-to-day variations due to synoptic changes in weather patterns are included. Estimates are also given of the probability of extreme wind speeds at specific locations and altitudes up to 60 km. A statistical technique that can be used to obtain estimates of the integrated effect of wind on the trajectories and impact points of reentry vehicles is presented, and an example of its application is given. These effects due to the winds must be considered, along with the density effects, in the design and operation of guidance systems for reentry vehicles and for targeting ballistic missiles.
