Growth of polar vortices vs projective geometry
What Does This Figure Mean?The Interplay of Polar Vortices and Projective Geometry The study of polar vortices, the large-scale circulation patterns in the Earth’s atmosphere that dominate the polar regions, has long fascinated meteorologists and climate scientists. Interestingly, the geometric properties of these vortices can be analyzed through the lens of projective geometry, a branch of mathematics that studies
