Overview

     This is a preliminary set of considerations, based on limited common sense observations, and illustrated with a variety of pertinent visuals. While admittedly impressionistic in scope and intent, this page serves the useful purpose of providing a reference point for visuals that are gathered here topically and are invoked at various points within the website and the UGR.

Winds

     Winds are generally strong at the site in the summer. We have occasionally measured their force, but only for practical reasons, i.e., in relationship to the flying of kites, which we use for aerial photography. These measurements have not been recorded.
     We often witness violent sandstorms, which last generally for a few hours. We have occasionally documented these with videoclips.
