Short summary
This study presents a method to estimate wind speeds that could occur in a 50-year period. The 50-year wind speed is calculated for three regions: Taiwan, Japan, and the east coast of the US. The method performs well in Taiwan and Japan, which can be attributed to the large dataset size located in a limited spatial area. The east coast of the US performs less well due to the smaller dataset size and wider spatial region that they cover.
