Channel: National Academies - Earth and Life Studies
Date: 2023-06-27

The Committee on Evaluation of Hydrodynamic Modeling and Implications for Offshore Wind Development Nantucket Shoals held an open session on June 1, 2023 for the purpose of gathering information to inform the study and will cover the following topics: oceanography of the Nantucket Shoals region, effects of wind turbines on ecosystem dynamics in the Nantucket Shoals regions, lessons learned from North Sea offshore wind energy fields, application of existing hydrodynamic models to the Nantucket Shoals region, atmospheric modeling for wind turbines, and finally we’ll hear perspectives on the statement of task from offshore wind energy representatives.
