Atmospheric Dynamics¶
← Back to Domain-Specific Abstractions by Domain
2 domain-specific abstractions whose origin domain is Atmospheric Dynamics.
- Primitive Equations — The coupled hydrostatic equations for large-scale rotating stratified fluid flow, combining horizontal momentum, mass continuity, thermodynamics, hydrostatic balance, and a state relation.
- Thermal wind — The vertical shear of balanced horizontal wind implied by a horizontal temperature gradient in a rotating stratified fluid.
