Over the last few years I have had occasion to analyse very large datasets of wind shear levels. Agreed this was measured at lower levels, 125 m and below, but it indicates what must be occurring above. It is often assumed to conform to simple formulae. It does not. I frequently saw occasions when wind speed at low levels was much greater than at high levels. Completely counter intuitive. As stated elsewhere, we have much to learn about wind shear.
