"textContent": "Example embodiments relate to techniques for adjusting vehicle behavior based on ambient ground relative wind estimations. An onboard computing system may receive wind data from one or multiple wind sensors positioned onboard a vehicle. The wind data can indicate a direction and a speed of wind propagating in the vehicle's environment. The computing system can also receive navigation data that represents a direction and a speed of the vehicle and then estimate an ambient ground relative wind speed based on the navigation data and the wind data. The computing system can adjust the behavior of the vehicle based on the ambient ground relative wind speed. For instance, the computing system may compare the speed of the ambient ground relative wind to a predefined behavior threshold curve and adjust the behavior of the vehicle based on the comparison.",
