Abstract
Low-Level Wind Shear (LLWS) is one of the most critical aviation hazards. Detecting it accurately must be the main objective to guarantee flight safety. Terrain-induced wind shear at Tenerife South (GCTS) and Gran Canaria airports (GCLP) could be hazardous to the landing and departing aircraft. This paper shows an experimental wind shear alert system based on two different methodologies. Both of them have been developed from u and v wind components of Harmonie-Arome Model.
