The Geostrophic Eady Problem Revisited - Lecture 1

International Centre for Theoretical Sciences via YouTube

Overview

Explore the fundamental concepts of geophysical fluid dynamics in this lecture on "The Geostrophic Eady Problem Revisited" by Julian Mak. Delve into the complexities of atmospheric and oceanic dynamics, focusing on the Eady problem, a key model in understanding baroclinic instability. Learn how this classical problem contributes to our understanding of energy transfers across multiple scales in Earth's climate system. Gain insights into the theoretical foundations that underpin modern climate modeling and weather prediction. Part of the "Theoretical and Practical Perspectives in Geophysical Fluid Dynamics" program, this 48-minute lecture sets the stage for a comprehensive exploration of multi-scale interactions in geophysical fluids.
