Earth and space share similar turbulence dynamics
Tokyo, Japan (SPX) Jun 09, 2024
In a paper published in Geophysical Research Letters, researchers have discovered that turbulence in the thermosphere follows the same physical laws as wind in the lower atmosphere. Additionally, wind in the thermosphere rotates cyclonically-counterclockwise in the Northern Hemisphere and clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere. These findings reveal a new principle for Earth's environmental
