Abstract:
The paper presents several results regarding the particularities of the wind in Oltenia, a southwestern region of Romania, under the circumstances of the evolution of an Atlantic origin anticyclone up to
Romania’s longitudes. The study emphasizes the dominating frequency of the wind from the westerly direction at the stations in Southern Oltenia, but this direction is not in compliance with the general movement of the air in the studied ridges. Such results are the consequencies of the Carpathian Mountains shape in the region; their position settles a specific planetary boundary layer circulation. The results are also explained using the Lagrange theory applied at meso-synoptic scale. Finally, a case study is offered to further illustrate the teoretical concepts.
