This equation is a statement of conservation of momentum.
We are more than half-way to forming a set of equations that can be used to describe and predict the motion of the atmosphere!
Once we add conservation of mass and energy, we will spend the rest of the course studying what we can learn from these equations.

Vertical Structure and Pressure as a Vertical Coordinate
• Integrate from pressure p1 to p2 at heights z1 and z2
• From the definition of geopotential we get thickness and the fact that thickness is proportional to temperature
• So, hydrostatic balance and the ideal gas law form the basis for the relationship between and

Pressure Coordinates: Why?
• From Holton, p2:“The general set of … equations governing the motion of the atmosphere is extremely complex; no general solutions are known to exist. …it is necessary to develop models based on systematic simplification of the fundamental governing equations.”
• Two goals of dynamic meteorology:
1. Understand atmospheric motions (diagnosis)2. Predict future atmospheric motions (prognosis)
• Use of pressure coordinates simplifies the equations of motion

Consider a fluid parcel moving along some trajectory.
Now we are going to think about fluids.

How would we quantify this?

Parcel position is a function of its starting point.The history of the parcel is known

Lagrangian Point of View
• This parcel-trajectory point of view, which follows a parcel, is known as the Lagrangian point of view.
• Benefits:– Useful for developing theory – Very powerful for visualizing fluid motion– The history of each fluid parcel is known
• Problems:– Requires considering a coordinate system for each parcel– How do you account for interactions of parcels with each other?– How do you know about the fluid where there are no parcels?– How do you know about the fluid if all of the parcels bunch
together?

Consider a fluid parcel moving along some trajectory
Could sit in one place and watch parcels go by.

How would we quantify this?
• In this case:• Our coordinate system does not change• We keep track of information about the atmosphere at a
number of (usually regularly spaced) points that are fixed relative to the Earth’s surface
![Page 26: AOSS 401, Fall 2007 Lecture 4 September 12, 2007 Richard B. Rood (Room 2525, SRB) rbrood@umich.edu 734-647-3530 Derek Posselt (Room 2517D, SRB) dposselt@umich.edu](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649e175503460f94b03180/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Eulerian Point of View
• This point of view, where is observer sits at a point and watches the fluid go by, is known as the Eulerian point of view.
• Benefits:– Useful for developing theory– Requires considering only one coordinate system for all parcels– Easy to represent interactions of parcels through surface forces– Looks at the fluid as a field.– A value for each point in the field – no gaps or bundles of
“information.”
• Problems– More difficult to keep track of parcel history—not as useful for
applications such as pollutant dispersion…

Why Consider Two Frames of Reference?
• Goal: understanding. Will allow us to derive simpler forms of the governing equations
• Basic principles still hold: the fundamental laws of conservation– Momentum– Mass– Energy
• are true no matter which reference frame we use

Why Lagrangian?
• Lagrangian reference frame leads to the material (total, substantive) derivative
• Useful for understanding atmospheric motion and for deriving mass continuity…

Class Exercise: Gradients and Advection
• The temperature at a point 50 km north of a station is three degrees C cooler than at the station.
• If the wind is blowing from the north at 50 km h-1 and the air is being heated by radiation at the rate of 1 degree C h-1, what is the local temperature change at the station?
• Hints:– You should not need a calculator– Use the definition of the material derivative and of
advection

Curl (Cross-Product)
• The curl will be closely related to rotation—we will use this extensively when we cover vorticity
• The result of taking the curl is a vector that is perpendicular (orthogonal) to both of the original vectors
• The direction of the resulting vector depends on the order of operations…
• We will return to this in more detail later…ABBA

Next time
• Conservation of mass (the continuity equation) (Holton, 2.5.1, 2.5.2)
• Scale analysis (Holton, 2.4, 2.5.3)
• Reversing these (compared to Holton) – derivation of the continuity equation uses the
distinction between Eulerian and Lagrangian reference frames
– Do this while the material is relatively fresh…
