  • Abstract
    Cantorian fractal spacetime fluctuations characterize quantum-like chaos in atmospheric flows. The macroscale atmospheric flow structure behaves as a unified whole quantum system, where the superimposition of a continuum of eddies results in the observed global weather patterns with long-range spatiotemporal correlations, such as that of the widely investigated El Nino phenomenon. Large eddies are visualised as envelopes enclosing smaller eddies, thereby generating a hierarchy of eddy circulations, originating initially from a fixed primary small scale energising perturbation, e.g., the frictional upward momentum flux at the boundary layer of the Earths surface. In this paper, it is shown that the relative motion concepts of Einsteins Special and General Theories of Relativity are applicable to eddy circulations originating from a constant primary perturbation.
