A machine learning approach to wind estimation and uncertainty using remote dropsondes and deterministic forecasts
… a DZ, the dropsonde measurement is merged with a weather forecast using machine learning methods, and the aircrew releases the payload when they reach the drop zone. Machine learning models are trained to use a deterministic weather forecast and a dropsonde measurement to predict the winds over a …

The Examination and Evaluation of Dynamic Ship Quiescence Prediction and Detection Methods for Application in the Ship-Helicopter Dynamic Interface
… these operations can be planned around suitable weather forecast or delayed until smoother motions are apparent, naval ships conducting flight operations may have little liberty in their mission planning and execution. Tools exist to translate the ocean's harsh conditions into discretely defined …

Improving Predictability of Wind Power Generation
… is highly dependent on variable factors such as weather and local geographies, making wind power generation forecast a particularly difficult task. This adds to the challenge of grid management, which requires that the supply of electricity equates the demand at all times. Complicating the effort …
