Circulation in the Atmosphere Circulation in the atmosphere
What regulates the motion of fluid particles in the ocean and atmosphere? Newton’s Law
What drives the circulation of the atmosphere? Differential Heating From Equators to Poles
What drives the circulation of the atmosphere? troposphere surface Equator/Tropics Higher Latitudes
Vertical view of air pressure (global convection) High Pressure Low Pressure
Horizontal view of air pressure at ocean surface High Pressure + Higher Latitudes Surfaces of constant pressure y (latitude) x (longitude) _ Low Pressure Equator/Tropics

Rate of Rotation North Hemisphere A t 1 Low Pressure t 2 High Pressure B t 3 t 4 F t 5 F Coriolis pressure
v y (latitude) Newton’s Law x (longitude) u Motion across Latitudes Motion along Latitude
F pressure F Coriolis F pressure F F F Coriolis F pressure Coriolis When this balance is reached the movement of the particles (and therefore of the flow) is called geostrophic motion
v y (latitude) Newton’s Law x (longitude) u Motion across Latitudes Motion along Latitude
Some practical rules to remember: F pressure F Coriolis Low Pressure High Pressure 1) Particle will have the Coriolis force 90 degrees to the right 2) Particles will tend to move along line of constant pressure 3) Particles will have the high pressure on their right (same as Coriolis)
