Ekman Layer Dynamics is a subfield of boundary layer meteorology that studies the momentum and mass balances, force interactions (pressure gradient, Coriolis, and viscous or turbulent stresses), and resulting wind structure within the rotating, frictional atmospheric boundary layer known as the Ekman layer.
