Pressure as a Vertical Coordinate

############################# Video Source: www.youtube.com/watch?v=bs98_DpaAK8

In atmospheric sciences, pressure is often used as a vertical coordinate instead of geometric height. This approach is beneficial because air density disappears from the expressions of the horizontal components of the pressure gradient force. The application of hydrostatic equation and geopotential to this new coordinate system is also demonstrated. • Atmospheric science playlist: • Atmospheric Science • Wind energy playlist: • Wind Energy • Wind engineering playlist: • Wind Engineering • Channel's mission: • --------- • The dissemination of knowledge and advancement of learning by providing high-quality content in the fields of atmospheric science, wind engineering, and wind energy. • --------- • Link to PayPal donation: https://www.paypal.me/DjordjeRomanic • Stay in the atmosphere!
