  2. Geophysical fluid dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geophysical_fluid_dynamics

    Geophysical fluid dynamics, in its broadest meaning, refers to the fluid dynamics of naturally occurring flows, such as lava flows, oceans, and planetary atmospheres, on Earth and other planets. [ 1 ]

    In 1987, Ramaswamy accepted a position at the Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL). He became a Physical Scientist and group leader in 1995. He was promoted to Senior Scientist and group leader in 2000. After the retirement of Ants Leetmaa in January 2006, Ramaswamy became Acting Lab Director, then Director in November 2008.

  6. Geophysics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geophysics

    Geophysical fluid dynamics is a primary tool in physical oceanography and meteorology. The rotation of the Earth has profound effects on the Earth's fluid dynamics, often due to the Coriolis effect. In the atmosphere, it gives rise to large-scale patterns like Rossby waves and determines the basic circulation patterns of storms.

  7. Outline of geophysics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_of_geophysics

    Geophysical fluid dynamics – study of naturally occurring, large-scale flows on Earth and other planets. Geodesy – measurement and representation of the Earth, including its gravitational field. Geodynamics – study of modes of transport deformation within the Earth: rock deformation, mantle convection, heat flow, and lithosphere dynamics.

  8. Geophysical & Astrophysical Fluid Dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geophysical_&_Astrophysical...

    Geophysical & Astrophysical Fluid Dynamics is a bimonthly peer-reviewed scientific journal covering applications of fluid dynamics in the fields of astrophysics and geophysics. It was established in 1970 as Geophysical Fluid Dynamics , obtaining its current name in 1977.
