Chapter 11 Imbalance and Vertical Motion (1) Wind-Parallel Accelerations In order for wind to flow in a cyclonically curved manner, (an acceleration) it has to be sub-geostrophic.…
ATMOSPHERIC FORCES or Why Does the Wind Blow? Acceleration = Pressure gradient force + Coriolis force + Friction force. Air motion is well described by the Navier-Stokes…
