The details of two studies to better define the wind power potential at two potential wind power development areas are given. The sites are located along the southern Oregon coast (Cape Blanco) and in the Columbia River Gorge (Goodnoe Hills/Juniper Point). The variation of wind with height is found as well as the effect of removing trees on the strength and vertical profile of wind in the Cape Blanco area. (LEW)
