Additional Information: Coriolis ForceTo illustrate a conceptual example of the effects of the Coriolis force, the wind(momentum) equations are simplified by assuming that advection and frictionaleffects are equal to zero for an atmosphere initially at rest. Using thisassumption, the equations reduce to the following form. u/t and v/t are the rates of changes in the u and v components of the windduring the time step t fv and fu represent the Coriolis effect (g z/x and g z/y) represent the pressure gradient accelerations in the x and ydirections (the change in z over distance)
