Welcome to Iowa State University
Wind Science Research

The Wind Science Program (WiSP) at Iowa State University resides in the Atmospheric Science Program in the Department of Geological and Atmospheric Sciences and the Agricultural Meteorology Program within the Department of Agronomy. WiSP also is affiliated with the Wind Energy Program in the DOE Ames Laboratory.

The purpose of this site is to build awareness of winds not only in our everyday lives but also for their role in wind energy and agricultural productivity. Our group is engaged in research and analysis of winds with a goal of better understanding of the characteristics of wind in Iowa and improving our ability to forecast winds on time scales of minutes to decades.
