Wind turbine radiated acoustic signals—Propagation in a temporally and spatial variable marine meteorological boundary layer

The temporal and spatial properties of an acoustic field radiated from a wind turbine operating in a marine meteorological boundary layer and a spatial temporal variable impedance boundary will be quantified using paraxial equation based numerical simulations. A sound speed field will be constructed using wind field measurements made with a 915 MHZ radar wind speed sensor and local temperature and humidity measurements obtained from a meteorological tower. Temporally variable impedance boundary conditions for a tidal marine marsh will be included in the simulations.
