Hellmann-constant-based extrapolation of wind speed for higher altitudes

Description

Hellmann-constant-based extrapolation of wind speed for higher altitudes

Usage

fWindSpeedExtrapolation(m, W10M, hellmann)

fWSE(m, W10M, hellmann)

Arguments

m	height (in meters) for which wind speed will be estimated;
W10M	wind speed at height of 10 meters (from MERRA2 database);
hellmann	Hellmann exponent (calculated with fHellmann function)

Value

a numeric vector of estimated wind speed (m/s) at the m height (meters).
