Study of the Spatial and Temporal Variation of wind velocity in Selected Stations in Iraq

The wind is one of the climatic elements that has most important relationship with many human activities and explain the climatic conditions for any region, hence the most hourly and daily weather changes occurs because the variation the wind. In this research study of the spatial and temporal variation of wind velocity in selected stations from Iraq ( Mosul, Baghdad و Basra, Diwaniyah ) through the use of data of wind velocity for the period ( 1980 – 2009 ), which was obtained from the Iraqi Meteorological and Seismology Organization. Results have shown that the wind velocity increases in the Summer season of the year compared with the Winter season, the results also indicated that the wind velocity in the northern station ( Mosul ) is less than that recorded velocity in the middle station(Baghdad) and southern stations(Diwaniyah and Basra) respectively .
