Statement

The scientific and technical contents of the CARAVELE project were:

• Methodological developments to extrapolate satellite surface winds at nacelle height.

• Use of observations performed using synthetic aperture radar (SAR) to record the high resolution spatial variability of wind fields and extreme winds, and coupling with wind forecast models.

• Tests in a wave tank fitted with a wind generator to study air-sea interactions during extreme events.

• Extraction of more accurate information from several atmospheric models combined with observations using optimised observation networks.

Partners of the project: France Energies Marines, Ifremer, CLS, OceanDataLab, IPSL, CNRS, EDF, NAVAL Energies, RSMAS, CISESE, Ecole des Ponts Paris-Tech.

Funding: French National Research Agency under the Investment for the Future Programme (ANR-10-IEED-0006-26).
