ketones
Weather; Meteorology
Family of organic carbonyl compounds of general formula RC(O)R, where the R represents alkyl groups (not necessarily the same). Ketones are formed in the oxidation of most of the ...
Lagrangian equations of motion
Weather; Meteorology
Differential equations that determine the evolution of a general dynamical system. These are derived using the calculus of variations to minimize the Lagrangian functional ...
large eddy simulation models
Weather; Meteorology
Computer codes that numerically integrate in three dimensions the time-dependent Navier–Stokes equations filtered over a grid volume much smaller than the size of the ...
London (sulfurous) smog
Weather; Meteorology
Deadly mixture of smoke and fog peaking in the midtwentieth century in large cities. A smog episode in London in 1952 led to 4000 deaths. The sulfuric acid produced from the ...
