Mesoscale Vorticity

Mesoscale Vorticity is a meteorological phenomenon denoting the rotation inherent in atmospheric flows at the mesoscale, characterized by horizontal vorticity structures typically ranging from 2 to 2000 kilometers in spatial extent and arising from localized gradients in wind shear, convection, or topographic influences.
