Dataset
Summary
This dataset contains 14 years of hourly data at a 3x3 grid resolution of wind speed, wind direction and wind power density at seven vertical levels (30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, and 100 m above ground level) over the Galapagos Islands.

Note:
The NetCDF files of this dataset were packed to reduce the data volume. To unpack the packed variables, please use the operator "unpack" in CDO.
