  "id": "MLC-T-MET-006841",
  "term": "Lagrangian mean current",
  "field": "Meteorology and atmospheric science",
  "definition": "The average velocity of fluid parcels as they move through a fluid, calculated by following their individual trajectories over a period. This differs from the Eulerian mean current, which is the average velocity at a fixed point in space. It is particularly relevant for understanding the net transport of substances in a fluid.",
