  "field": "Meteorology and atmospheric science",
  "definition": "A determinant of a matrix composed of all first-order partial derivatives of a set of functions with respect to a set of variables. This mathematical tool is used to transform coordinate systems or to analyze the local behavior of a system of equations. In atmospheric science, it often appears in calculations involving changes of variables in fluid dynamics equations.",
