Several studies have
reported that wind direction and speed prevailing at a place plays a
significant role in the sediment re-suspension and bacteria deposition in the
water bodies located in its vicinity. Through this paper, an attempt has been
made to explore the pattern of wind direction and wind speed; the
inter-relationships between them in 5 Meteorological stations across Assam,
India, selecting one from each zone, using both linear and circular statistical
tools. Also, a season-wise comparison of the stations with respect to the wind
speed and direction has been carried out using non-parametric techniques. That
the wind in Assam, on average, has been found to emanate from north-east
direction during both morning and evening and the association between wind
speed and direction for winter season is non-significant for all the places,
constitute two important findings of the study. - See more at:
