Abstract: A set of observations of hourly wind movement at four levels in the layer 2?14 m. above the crest of a ridge is presented. The data are classified into prevailing wind types. During most periods the profile conforms to observations in flat terrain only in its lower part, and it does not conform to a normal structure of the free air. It is suggested that the observed profile represents an incompletely developed turbulent profile due to a short fetch over the ground surface.
