On Gradient Winds

[摘要] Following G. I. Taylor's vorticity transport theory, and assuming the eddy viscosity K as a function of the vertical gradient of horizontal current velocity (u, v) in the type of K=K0 the present author concluded that:1. Under these assumptions, the air current accurately attains the gradient wind at a finite height.2. Generally the height of gradient wind increases as the gradient of current velocity increases.
