Forecasting Intensity and Direction of Tropical Cyclones and Investigating their Impacts on Renewable Energy Power Plants in Iran

As one of the biggest vectors on ocean's surface, winds influence a great range of ocean's surface from little waves to great streams. Winds also balance interactions between atmosphere and ocean by stabilizing heat, moisture and gases with ocean's air. In addition, oceanic vector winds can cause devastating forces which are called tropical cyclones. These forces can cause life and property damage. Therefore, it is important to forecast it. It also has a great importance in operation of renewable energy power plants. In this paper, the intensity and direction of tropical cyclones are forecasted and their impacts are analyzed using Matlab software.
