Summary

Description
English: The blue portion of the surface denotes a cold region while the orange portion denotes a warm region. Temperature difference is restricted to the boundary in (a) and extends through the region in (b). The dotted lines enclose isobaric surfaces which remain at constant slope with increasing height in (a) and increase in slope with height in (b). This causes thermal wind to occur only in a baroclinic atmosphere.

This physics image could be re-created using vector graphics as an SVG file. This has several advantages; see Commons:Media for cleanup for more information. If an SVG form of this image is available, please upload it and afterwards replace this template with {{vector version available|new image name}}.


It is recommended to name the SVG file “Thermal wind, Baroclinic & Barotropic Atmospheres.svg”—then the template Vector version available (or Vva) does not need the new image name parameter.
