  "id": "MLC-T-MET-006784",
  "term": "Kinematics",
  "field": "Meteorology and atmospheric science",
  "definition": "The branch of mechanics that describes the motion of points, bodies, and systems of bodies without considering the forces that cause the motion. In atmospheric science, kinematics focuses on describing air parcel trajectories, wind fields, and their derivatives like divergence and vorticity. It provides a foundational understanding of atmospheric circulation patterns.",
