Equivalent latitude (Climatology 🌍)

In differential geometry, the equivalent latitude is a Lagrangian coordinate. It is often used in atmospheric science, particularly in the study of stratospheric dynamics. Each isoline in a map of equivalent latitude follows the flow velocity and encloses the same area as the latitude line of equivalent value, hence "equivalent latitude."...
