  "term": "Taylor number",
  "field": "Meteorology and atmospheric science",
  "definition": "A dimensionless quantity that characterizes the ratio of Coriolis forces to viscous forces in a rotating fluid. It indicates the relative strength of rotational effects compared to internal friction within the fluid. A high Taylor number suggests that rotation strongly influences the flow, leading to phenomena such as Taylor columns in geophysical fluid dynamics.",
