A look at how thermal wind can sometimes (not always) tell us something about temperature advection at some level in the ... What the pressure gradient force looks like in natural coordinates. A look at some of the physical consequences behind the centripetal and centrifugal forces. Many meteorologists prefer to represent state variables in the atmosphere as the sum of a background (mean) state and a ... How does the atmosphere attempt to resolve radiative balances? One key mechanism is to create cyclones. An exercise to check your understanding of the Coriolis force.
A look at the low-level jet, which typically exists between 1-2 km above ground level. Unlike most jet-streams, the low-level jet has ... Stationary fronts are never perfectly stationary, but are sluggish enough to be called stationary. Occluded fronts can produce very ... What is thermal wind and why does it exist? A first look at two different approaches to analyzing atmospheric flow patterns. A graphical representation of what we explored in the previous What the acceleration vector looks like in natural coordinates.
