  "term": "Tertiary circulation",
  "field": "Meteorology and atmospheric science",
  "definition": "Atmospheric circulation patterns that are highly localized and often driven by specific geographical features or diurnal heating cycles, such as land-sea breezes, mountain-valley winds, or urban heat island circulations. These circulations are smaller in scale than primary (global) and secondary (synoptic) circulations. They significantly influence local weather and air quality.",
