NASA Publishes Ocean Surface Wind Power Density Maps: Plus Top Ten Locations

Thinking about investing in wind farms on the high seas? Scientists from NASA's Earth Science Division, working out of the California Jet Propulsion Lab, have used several years worth of QuikSCAT satellite data to produce wind power density maps for the ocean surface. Pictured here is the Northern Winter map. Northern Summer view is included in this link. (A list of "Top Ten" locations for frequent high oceanic winds on an annual average basis is presented below t...
