- In
fluid dynamics, a
barotropic fluid is a
fluid whose density is a
function of
pressure only. The
barotropic fluid is a
useful model of
fluid behavior...
- The

atmosphere is
nearly barotropic,
which means that the
direction and

geostrophic wind are independent...
- not a
barotropic instability can occur,
leading to the
presence of
vortices (like
eddies and storms). The Kuo
criterion states that for

defined by zero baroclinity),
these surfaces are parallel. In Earth's atmosphere,
