Matthew Crews had an interesting reference, which I skimmed. Apparently
there is a 6% change in <stuff> a non-trivial distance downwind from the
wind farm.  If my skimming was accurate, that was measured difference,
but the simulation apparently was similar.  (But now we've gotten beyond
my skimming powers - there's a LOT of info in that reference!)
