In atmospheric electricity, a measure of the rate at which a given electrically charged object loses its charge to the surrounding air.
If the object bears a charge ''q'' at time ''t'', then according to a law established by Coulomb,

A functional relation between wavenumber and frequency for a plane harmonic wave of any kind.
That is, for a wave propagating in the ''x'' direction,

Industry:Weather
A graphic representation of the relationship of frequency to wavelength for wave motion.
The diagram is useful in determining the speed of wave motions and their dispersion characteristics. In ocean wave forecasting, it is a graph of the expression

The angular momentum as measured in an absolute coordinate system; hence, the vector product of the position vector of a particle into the absolute momentum of the particle.
In the atmosphere the absolute angular momentum M per unit mass of air is equal to the sum of the angular momentum relative to the earth and the angular momentum due to the rotation of the earth:

Industry:Weather
Velocity as measured in an absolute coordinate system; hence, in meteorology, the (vector) sum of the velocity of a fluid parcel relative to the earth and the velocity of the parcel due to the earth's rotation.
The east–west component is the only one affected:

The vorticity of a fluid particle determined with respect to an absolute coordinate system.
The absolute vorticity vector is defined by 2Ω + ∇ × u, where Ω is the earth's angular velocity vector and u is the three-dimensional relative velocity vector. 2. The vertical component η of the absolute vorticity vector (as defined above) given by the sum of the vertical component of the vorticity with respect to the earth (the relative vorticity) ζ and the vorticity of the earth (equal to the Coriolis parameter) ''f'':

Industry:Weather
The rate of change with time of the velocity vector of a particle.
If '''u''' is the vector velocity, the acceleration may be written as ''D'''''u'''''/Dt'', where ''D/Dt'' is the material (or total) derivative. For most purposes in hydrodynamics where Eulerian coordinates are employed, the acceleration is decomposed as follows:
