 +** Goal of lecture**
 +
 +This course offers an advanced treatment of the dynamics of the midlatitude atmosphere, emphasising
 +the use of conserved quantities such as potential vorticity to gain insight into the behaviour of
 +the complex dynamical system that is the earth's atmosphere. \\
 +
 +**Course Content**
 +
 +1. Equations of motion and the quasi-geostrophic approximation\\
 +2. Balanced flow and potential vorticity\\
 +3. Time-evolution and secondary circulation\\
 +4. Rossby waves and baroclinic instability\\
 +5. Turbulence and predictability \\
