Define these terms: relative vorticity, Earth vorticity, absolute vorticity
What will be an ideal response?
Answer: The rotation of a fluid (such as air) is referred to as its vorticity. The overall rotation of air, or its absolute vorticity, has two components: relative vorticity, or the vorticity relative to Earth's surface, and Earth vorticity, which is due to Earth's daily rotation about its axis.
