Biography
Mr. Witha has been graduated as meteorologist in 2007, followed by a PhD in atmospheric boundary layer modelling at Leibniz University Hannover, Germany. Since 2011 he is working as PostDoc researcher at ForWind - Center for Wind Energy Research located at the Carl von Ossietzky University Oldenburg, Germany. His expertise is wind energy meteorology in general with two core topics:
1) The interaction of wind turbine wakes with the turbulent atmospheric boundary layer investigated primarily by Large-Eddy Simulations
2) Wind resource assessment by means of mesoscale model simulations - here, he is working on creating the New European Wind Atlas together with the co-authors of the poster
