Abstract: In order to investigate the wind characteristics of coastal areas of China, a long-term field measurement of natural wind was carried out. Based on the field measurement results, this paper presents the natural wind characteristics of typhoons and strong monsoons at the site of Xi-hou-men Bridge, including mean wind speed, mean wind direction, mean wind elevation angle, turbulent intensity, gust factor, turbulence integral length scales, power spectrum of wind speed and spatial correlation of gusty wind, the profiles of mean wind speed and turbulent intensity, etc. The correlation among wind characteristics is analyzed in detail, and the similarities and differences of wind characteristics between typhoons and monsoons are analyzed. These results can provide detailed wind characteristics of coastal areas of China.

Key words: Wind characteristics, Field measurement, Wind spectrum, Wind profiles, Spatial correlation
