Atmospheric dynamics is the study of the forces that result in the changing motions of air within the Earth's atmosphere. The equations of motion can be expressed in either an Eulerian or Lagrangian form, i.e.
quasigeostrophic theory"A theory of atmospheric dynamics that involves the quasigeostrophic approximation in the derivation of the quasigeostrophic equations.
The critical role of atmospheric dynamics and thermodynamics in determination of storm type is stressed.
