In relative motion with respect to the Earth, the rate of change of the circulation (dC/dt) along a closed curve consisting always of the same fluid particles is equal to the number of isobaric-isosteric solenoids (N) enclosed by the curve, minus the product of twice the angular velocity of the Earth ([omega]) and the rate of variation of the area (d[sigma]/dt) defined by the projection of the curve on the equatorial plane: dC/dt = N - 2[omega]d[sigma]/dt. 2, record 1, English, - circulation%20theorem%20of%20Bjerknes

Dans le mouvement relatif par rapport à la Terre, la vitesse de variation de la circulation (dC/dt) le long d'une courbe fermée toujours formée des mêmes particules fluides est égale au nombre des solénoïdes isobares-isostères (N) enveloppés par la courbe, moins le produit du double de la vitesse angulaire de rotation terrestre ([oméga]) par le taux de variation de l'aire (d[sigma]/dt) définie par la projection de la courbe sur le plan de l'équateur : dC/dt = N - 2[oméga]d[sigma]/dt. 2, record 1, French, - th%C3%A9or%C3%A8me%20de%20la%20circulation%20de%20Bjerknes
