pywasp.lincom.get_return_wind

pywasp.lincom.get_return_wind(pewc, return_period=50, pewc_max_interval=None)[source]

Use the Gumbel distribution to find the return wind and uncertainty

Warning

This function is experimental and its signature may change.

Parameters:

  • pewc (xarray.Dataset) – PyWAsP PEWC dataset with max_wspd variable, and only year and geospatial dimensions

  • return_period (float, optional) – Return period in years to calculate the max wind speed and uncertainty By default 50 (years)

  • pewc_max_interval (float, optional) – Maximum interval in years, by default None

Returns:

out_ds (Dataset) – PyWAsP Dataset of the same spatial structure as pewc, containing the Gumbel distributions Alpha and Beta parameters, the extreme wind speed, and the uncertainty of the extreme wind speed.

Notes

pewc_max_interval is likely 1, the period of each year
