Rapid changes of wind speed in the atmosphere, also called wind gusts, cause large fatigue loads on wind turbines. These loads reduce the lifetime of wind turbine components.

In this study, high-resolution wind data recorded by 3D sonic anemometers at a tall meteorological tower were analyzed to determine 12 descriptors of wind gusts and to identify the
