Dear guys,

I read papers on prediction wind power using NWP data. It seems that are only two methods to do wind speed downscaling:

Method 1 - Put NWP meso data into WAsP-CFD downscaling model.

Method 2 - From GFS to WRF, in this case, WPF is the NWP meso model. The output from WRF is used directly or refined by a statistical model. 

What is the difference between WAsP and WRF?

Is there other any good downscaling way ?

Thanks.
