Advection — Advection, in chemistry, engineering and earth sciences, is a transport mechanism of a substance, or a conserved property, by a fluid, due to the fluid s bulk motion in a particular direction. An example of advection is the transport of… … Wikipedia
Contour advection — simulation Contour advection is a Lagrangian method of simulating the evolution of one or more contours or isolines of a tracer as it is stirred by a moving fluid. Consider a blob of dye injected into a river or stream: to first order it could be … Wikipedia
Omega equation — The omega equation is of great importance in meteorology and atmospheric physics. It is a partial differential equation for the vertical velocity, ω, which is defined as a Lagrangian rate of change of pressure with time, that is, . The equation… … Wikipedia
Material derivative — The material derivative[1][2] is a derivative taken along a path moving with velocity v, and is often used in fluid mechanics and classical mechanics. It describes the time rate of change of some quantity (such as heat or momentum) by following… … Wikipedia
climate — /kluy mit/, n. 1. the composite or generally prevailing weather conditions of a region, as temperature, air pressure, humidity, precipitation, sunshine, cloudiness, and winds, throughout the year, averaged over a series of years. 2. a region or… … Universalium

Partial differential equation — A visualisation of a solution to the heat equation on a two dimensional plane In mathematics, partial differential equations (PDE) are a type of differential equation, i.e., a relation involving an unknown function (or functions) of several… … Wikipedia
Chaotic mixing — An example of chaotic mixing In chaos theory and fluid dynamics, chaotic mixing is a process by which flow tracers develop into complex fractals under the action of a time varying fluid flow. The flow is characterized by an exponential growth of… … Wikipedia
Magnetic Reynolds number — The Magnetic Reynolds number is a dimensionless group that occurs in magnetohydrodynamics. It gives an estimate of the effects of magnetic advection to magnetic diffusion, and is typically defined by: where U is a typical velocity scale of the… … Wikipedia
Convection–diffusion equation — The convection–diffusion equation is a parabolic partial differential equation combining the diffusion equation and the advection equation, which describes physical phenomena where particles or energy (or other physical quantities) are… … Wikipedia
