Temporal and spatial variation of wind velocity along Gulf of Suez

Abstract EN

The wind data obtained from two stations at Suez and El Tor have been analyzed as an attempt to understand the relation between the wind velocities along the Gulf of Suez.

The kinetic energy has low values during the high frequency while it has high values at the low frequency oscillation due to the several depressions pass over the red sea during the cold period.

The relation between the wind velocity at Suez and El Tor stations is expressed in terms of the coherence phase difference a function of frequency.

The correlation coefficient of the two wind components between the two stations declared high correlate values.
