What is it about?

Currently, as defined by the scientific community, atmospheric circulation generally refers to the phenomena of atmospheric movement on a worldwide scale and in a large range. The causes of atmospheric circulation are summarized as follows: 1. Solar radiation. It is considered that the solar radiation is the source of energy of the atmosphere motion on the earth, because of the rotation and revolution of the earth, the surface of the earth receives the solar radiation energy is uneven. There are more tropical regions and less polar regions, thus forming the thermal circulation of the atmosphere. 2. The rotation of the earth. It is believed that the atmosphere moving on the surface of the earth will be deflected by the geostrophic deflection force. 3.The distribution of land and sea on the earth's surface is uneven. 4. The exchange of heat and momentum between north and south within the atmosphere. Therefore, at present, the scientific community has not recognized that atmospheric circulation is an overall movement in which the direction of the atmosphere is opposite to the direction of the earth's rotation, nor has it given the reason for the overall circulation of the atmosphere around the earth. At present, the scientific community believes that ocean current refers to the large-scale and stable flow of ocean surface water in a certain direction all the year round. At present, the scientific community has concluded that the factors causing the ocean current are: 1. Sea surface wind effect; 2. The inhomogeneity of seawater density distribution caused by thermal-salt effect; 3. The effect of geostrophic deflection force causes the sea water to flow both horizontally and vertically. It can be seen that ocean current is not recognized by the scientific community as the overall movement of sea water in the direction opposite to the rotation of the earth, nor has the cause of this overall circulation of sea water around the earth been given. This study reveals the real causes of atmospheric circulation and ocean currents.

Why is it important?

How do atmospheric circulation and ocean current form? Where does the energy of atmospheric circulation and ocean current come from ? This article gives the latest and deepest answers. Answering these questions involve the revision of the basic physical concepts of space, frame of reference and motion, the modification of Newton's first law and the special relativity.

Perspectives

I look forward to this article being read by researchers in physics, earth sciences, and atmospheric sciences, as well as by students and teachers at universities and high schools.
