Difference between Ekman layer and Geophysical fluid dynamics

Ekman layer vs. Geophysical fluid dynamics

The Ekman layer is the layer in a fluid where there is a force balance between pressure gradient force, Coriolis force and turbulent drag. 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.

Similarities between Ekman layer and Geophysical fluid dynamics

Ekman layer and Geophysical fluid dynamics have 3 things in common (in Unionpedia): Coriolis force, Ekman spiral, Geostrophic current.

Coriolis force

In physics, the Coriolis force is an inertial force that acts on objects that are in motion relative to a rotating reference frame.

Ekman spiral

The Ekman spiral is a structure of currents or winds near a horizontal boundary in which the flow direction rotates as one moves away from the boundary.

Geostrophic current

A geostrophic current is an oceanic flow in which the pressure gradient force is balanced by the Coriolis effect.
