The 1999 European Wind Energy Conference and Exhibition was organized to review progress, and present and discuss the wind energy business, technology and science for the future. The Proceedings contain a selection of over 300 papers from the conference. They represent a significant update to the understanding of this increasingly important field of energy generation and cover a full range of topics.

Most rime events in the Green Mountains are of low intensity, with greatest intensities found in warmer, subfreezing air within 5 C of the dew point. Rime was usually most intense within deep low pressure systems, and was associated with 9- to 10-tenths cloud cover and light precipitation. Rime was rarely associated with high pressure. Most rime events occurred within cold and occluded fronts in southerly to westerly winds. Rime was most intense on the trailing side of cyclones as they moved eastward and poleward of northern Vermont. Nearly all rime deposits during the study period were from the west and northwest. Rosemount ice detector performance on Mt. Mansfield compared favorably to performance of an identical detector on Mt. Washington under similar icing intensities. Feather growth rates were not measured accurately by the Rosemount detector, however. Feathers on equipment exposed similarly to the Rosemount grew at nearly twice the rate indicated by the Rosemount detector. Rime accretion increases at an increasing rate with elevation in the Green Mountains. Rime events are infrequent and have low intensities below 800 m. Rime accretion near the ground surface also correlated with relief exposure, with promontories accumulating more rime than hollows.

Judith Moffett returns to the future with this moving tale of the Hefn occupation of Earth and how it affects the planet's native humans - two in particular: Pam Pruitt, a talented young woman from Kentucky, and Liam O'Hara, whose unique friendship with the Hefn Humphrey saved his life. The two teens journey to a special place in remote Kentucky, Hurt Hollow, where the painter Orrin Hubbell and his wife, Hannah, found a way to live in peace with the planet during the twentieth century. The prospects of living peacefully seem distant for Pam and Liam, both of whom must find peace with themselves as well as with the Hefn Directive. The marvelous events that befall them en route to Kentucky and in the Hollow itself beautifully depict the subtle ways in which the world shapes them, and the stunning ways in which they change the world.
