strength of the Coriolis force. The quasi-geostrophic equations are approximations to the shallow water equations in the limit of small Rossby number...

atmospheric dynamics. The quasi-geostrophic equations are a reduction of the primitive equations first written down by Charney. These equations are valid in the...

nevertheless insightful balancing conditions is in the form of quasi-geostrophic equations. This approximation basically states that for three-dimensional...

that can be measured in the atmosphere but are derived from the quasi-geostrophic equations and can be used in the previous diagnostic situations. On meteorological...

The shallow-water equations (SWE) are a set of hyperbolic partial differential equations (or parabolic if viscous shear is considered) that describe the...

averaged over several pore-widths. In rotating systems, the quasi-geostrophic equations assume an almost perfect balance between pressure gradients and...

Starting with the quasi-geostrophic equations, applying the Eady model assumptions, and linearizing yields the linearized differential equations governing the...

vorticity Quasi-geostrophic equations Shallow water equations Taylor–Goldstein equation Groundwater flow equation Richards equation Hicks equation Kadomtsev–Petviashvili...

forecasters frequently make use of geostrophic/quasi-geostrophic approximation. Because friction is unimportant, the geostrophic balance fits flows high enough...

insight embodied by the quasi-geostrophic omega equation is that thermal wind balance (the combination of hydrostatic and geostrophic force balances above)...
