AB In general, weather forecasting has been significantly developed at a large scale and, joinedwith statistical techniques, is used to predict at a local scale. However, there is no way to propagatewinds between two nearby locations; this is a spatial transference, for example, for the waves.After studying coastal dunar systems affected by winds, we have proposed a way for the spatialpropagation of wind for scales under 10 km. The proposed transference is based on local data, and itis developed in an easy and accurate way by different regression methods and the wind profile theory.The aim of this article is to establish a methodology for achieving a wind transfer function for localapplications. For this purpose, we analyzed and compared data from a field experiment and froma nearby weather station. A combination of the wind profile and statistical downscaling techniqueformed the basis of this research, which leads to transfer equations for wind speeds and directions.To clarify the procedure, the proposed methodology was applied to the Valdevaqueros Coastal Dunein order to develop a transfer function using time series data from a nearby meteorological stationlocated in Tarifa.
