Highlights The evolution of a tropical depression is modified significantly by upstream offshore wind farms. The enhancement of convergence in the western side of the tropical depression is associated with gravity waves. Wind-farm wakes affect the low-level vertical wind shear through the downstream mountainous terrain. Abstract The influence of offshore wind farms in the northern South China Sea on a tropical depression far away (over the Beibu Gulf) is investigated through a fully coupled atmosphere-ocean model. Results show that in . . .
